Cozido à Portuguesa is the great boiled feast of Portugal — a magnificent pot of beef, pork, chicken, smoked sausages and winter vegetables simmered together until the kitchen smells of Sunday. Every region layers in its own additions, from blood sausage to rice.
It is a meal of generosity, traditionally cooked in a single pot over hours and served in courses: broth first, then meats, then vegetables. Perfect for a crowd, it rewards patience and feeds a tableful with plenty left over.
