Product Information

Piri Piri Starfish - By Tessa Kiros

Piri Piri is a hot chilli pepper, originally from Angola and embraced by the Portuguese who dribble Piri Piri oil over almost every dish.

 
Tessa Kiros believes that food is the essence of any country’s people, a quilt that is patchworked together with their language, culture and songs. When she takes her family to live and travel in Portugal, she is captivated by the country and charmed by the old-fashioned way of doing things. Portugal has everything she loves — the markets, the sea and the beautiful old pousadas — but she would have gone for the pasteis de nata alone.
 
In Piri Piri Starfish: Portugal Found, Tessa embroiders the recipes, traditions and Portuguese way of living together with her own unique colours and threads. Some of the present-day wonder of this small country can be attributed to her great history during the Age of Discovery: when the world beyond nearby lands and seas was little more than a mysterious dream to most Europeans, this land of bay leaves, becalhau and piri piri stretched out her roots over the globe.
 
Tessa’s beautiful writing conveys a wonderful sense of place and will take you deep into the world of Portugal, its people and its food.
 
Learn the methods and history of traditional dishes such as the salt cod, coriander, garlic and bread soup, and grilled chicken piri piri served with baked butter rice. Try the espetada (beef kebabs) with bay leaves which can be spiced up by adding some crushed herbs to the marinade, and Tessa’s mixed salad is the perfect accompaniment to the fish grill with lemon oil. And, of course, no meal is complete without some pasteis de nata (Portuguese tarts) for dessert!
 
With captivating photography and beautiful design by Tessa’s creative team from across the globe, Piri Piri Starfish: Portugal Found offers recipes for the whole family, encapsulating the European way of eating and providing inspiration with its beauty.
