Saffron Galletto Vallespluga

This recipe, though slightly revised, comes from the Cape Verde Islands. With these ingredients you’ll get a simple and tasty traditional dish with a twist.

Start by finely slicing the onion, garlic and carrots and seasoning the Galletto with salt and pepper.

Add oil to a pan and gently fry the onion and garlic. After a few minutes, add the Galletto halves to the pan and brown on all sides.

Next, dissolve the saffron in water in a bowl, then pour into the pan and add the carrots and tomato sauce. Cover and cook for 45 minutes over low heat.

Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them into not very small pieces, add them to the rest with the chilli (which you will then remove) and continue cooking for another 25 minutes over low heat. If the cooking sauce dries too much, add a little water. At the end of cooking you will get a fairly thick sauce. Serve the Galletto accompanied by its sauce with vegetables.

Fruit-Stuffed Galletto

Put 4 table spoons of oil in a baking tray, rest the Galletto and all the leftover fruit on it. Put in the oven for 50 minutes at 180° C, periodically dripping juice from bottom of dish onto the Galletto.

Galletto Vallespluga with peppers

This is one of many recipes which combines the delicate taste of the Galletto with typical mediteranean flavours.

Continue to cook over a low heat in a covered pan. Finally, add the stock or wine to prevent the juices from drying. Serve with boiled rice or mashed, creamed potatoes.
