Portugal vs Congo Food

Let's cook something for Ronaldo's first World Cup match, Portugal versus the DR Congo.Octopus is extremely famous in Portugal, and most Portuguese fishermen have this trick where they tenderize theirs by beating them against the rocks.But I'm going to be a bit more gentle and braise mine low and slow until it's perfectly tender.

And once I've trimmed off and selected all the best portions, it's time to bring in the DR Congo because they've got this incredible cooking method where you wrap food in banana leaves and season it with all kinds of Congolese spices.And once it's all neatly tied up, you grill it over fire where it steams and traps all that beautiful flavor inside.I call this dish banana braised octopus.Subscribe now if you think Ronaldo's the GOAT.
