I believe this is one of the most emblematic and exquisite dishes in the Brazilian cuisine; simply because it is easy, fast, uncomplicated to make and the taste… my oh my the taste… it tastes like e mix of coconut, a fresh ocean breeze, and ripe and plump and fresh vegetables even tho this is a cooked dish. The delicate and yet complex taste of this dish makes the moqueca one of the most sophisticated and yet, popular dishes ever created. Seriously, you are going to be amazed.
Enjoy!
