Moqueca is a stewed seafood in coconut milk that is a signature dish of the northeastern part of Brazil (The State of Bahia).
You can make it easily with ingredients available in Japan! It's creamy and so delicious, so give it a try.
(Authentic Moqueca is made with palm oil.)

All you need to do is to chop up the ingredients and simmer them!
It's like a Brazilian coconut milk curry...
Once you eat it, you will be hooked!!
It's delicious with just shrimp or just salted cod. Recipe by Burajirugohan
