It name reveals everything: Portuguese meats, sausages, and vegetables cooked together.It's recognized as one of the oldest dishes in Portuguese cuisine, a typically home-cooked meal, and is easily found on the menus of traditional restaurants.In reality, it's not 100% Portuguese in origin, as there's a very similar recipe in Spain, "olla podrida" or "cocido," in France "Pot-au-feu," and in Italy "Bollito misto."
