It?s a staple of southern Brazilian junk food, but usually in a size suitable to one person.
It?s somewhat like a burger: tomato, lettuce, corn, peas, mayo, cheese, egg and the protein of your choice (beef, bacon, chicken, etc). Everything is then pressed, otherwise you wouldn?t be able to bite it. In this case it has everything I metioned before plus bacon, chicken, beef, sausage, cream cheese and straw potatoes, but in a huge size.
It was lovely. I kinda ignored the recipe when it came to "Serves 4", because it didn't look like much in raw form so I made a double batch.
Having now eaten it I can tell you they are VERY filling (and delicious) and that recipe is more than enough for 4 adults, prolly 5 or 6 if you have kids.
Went to Arun's last night, my uncle took me out since he was in town for a conference. Delicious, I got pictures of every dish except the 1st course, which I forgot. So I'll post em up when I get home. It was 12 courses of the best Thai food I've ever had, he took traditional flavors and elevated them to a haute cuisine level.
