Migas de batata

(Migas de batata com entrecosto, Migas de batata à alentejana)

Migas de batata is a traditional dish from the Alentejo region of Portugal made by boiling potatoes, mashing them, and cooking them in the fat left from frying pork (such as spare ribs and bacon). The mixture is shaped into a firm ball with a golden, crispy exterior.


Typically seasoned with garlic, paprika, and salt, migas de batata is served with fried pork, making it a hearty and flavorful meal. Variations may include adding tomato sauce to the drippings.
