Portugal

Group G - PORTUGAL

What is it?

Polenta with sweetcorn, topped with a tomato and chorizo sauce and grated cheese.

How was it?

This was a top breakfast. Hearty, warming, filling, exciting. Lots of different flavours and textures to be found here. The sweetcorn-augmented polenta served as a good foundation to the breakfast, offering a hefty stooge that was punctuated with kind bursts of sweetness. The tomato and chorizo sauce was simple and effective, giving fire to the belly of the breakfast. Grated cheese did what it always does.

Overall thoughts:

I was won over instantly by the polenta. It was very easy to put together, although it did take a little while for it to cook. Once the various components were in the oven/pan it didn’t take much supervision though, and only a small amount of synchronisation was necessary. This was a great effort.


If it was a Portuguese footballer?

Hard and skilled, we’re looking at Raul Meireles.
