Torta de Frango was introduced to us by our cook, Ellen, and loved by Khipi's long-time Brazilian customer, Fernando. Torta de Frango is a simple Brazilian pie made with shredded chicken breast, onions, tomato, green peas, and corn and cooked in a buttery/flaky crust that melts in your mouth! It is very simple and loved all over Brazil. We will serve this with a simple spring mix salad with hearts of Palm.

Ingredients: Chicken breast, chicken stock, onion, garlic, tomato, green peas, parsley, corn, butter, Gruyère cheese, flour, egg, salt, pepper, olive oil, pie crust. I Salad: Spring mix, cherry tomatoes, palm hearts, olive oil, honey, mustard, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.

When a meatball marries a croquette, what you get is one of the best food inventions: Dutch Bitterballen (they are not bitter! lol). It is one of the most popular Dutch meals. It consists of crispy, deep-fried balls with tiny pieces of savory beef filling cooked in a thick ragout of flour, herbs, and shallots. This meal is served with mustard, thinly sliced smoked pork sausage, and Boerenkoolstamppot, a Dutch comfort food of mashed potatoes, turnips, and kale.

Option-Add a note if you want the pork sausage removed.

Note: Smoked pork sausage is not shown in this picture. We will not serve the brown sauce and cheese shown in the image.
