Vegetarian Feijoada And Collards Kale Brazilian Black Bean Stew


From http://jessicamomof6.blogspot.com/2009/06/brazilian-vegetarian-feijoada.html it sounds wonderful, but time-consuming. I doubt if it is near authentic.

Steps


First make the brazilian hot pepper sauce several hours in advance:.
Combine all ingredients in blender or food processor and puree just until a coarse sauce.
Let flavors meld for at least an hour at room temperature of 3 hours in the fridge.
Make sure to take out of fridge ahead of time to be served at room temperature.
Start brazilian rice:.
In a covered sauce pan , saut onion in oil for 5 minutes on med-high heat.
Add tomatoes and salt and continue to cook for 5 minutes.
Stir in rice and water , cover , bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and gently simmer on very low heat for about 40 minutes or until the rice is tender.
I found i had to add more water.
Feijoada:.
Place onions , garlic , celery , bell peppers , and water in large sauce pan.
Drain the juice of the canned tomatoes into the pan , set aside tomatoes for usage later.
Place pan on high heat and boil vegetables , stirring often , for about 15 minutes , until onions are translucent.
Lower heat and stir in cilantro.
