Spicy Galletto in roasting bag

“This is an alternative “alpine” way to cook on the grill. In mountain huts they use fine stone slates similar to roof tiles, called “piode”, arranged over 2 stones in order to create a sloped surface.
Light the fire under the “pioda”, heating it slowly to avoid breaking it. When the slate is very hot, carefully place the Galletto opened (marinaded with oil, salt and herbs) on it. The heat is very low and cooking needs quite some time, even more than 1 hour, but it’s well worth the wait.”

This recipe is from Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean. The combination of these ingredients makes us appreciate the delicate flavor of the Galletto and the scent of tropical spices.

Finely chop the garlic and finely slice the onions.
Skin the tomatoes and cut into little cubes.
Remove the thyme leaves from the branch.
After having cut the Galletto into pieces, add salt and pepper.
In a pan with oil, fry the pieces of Galletto on all sides. When they are golden, remove from the pan and keep warm in a bowl.
In a saucepan add the white wine. When it has evaporated, add the onion, thyme and garlic.
Cook for about 5 minutes and then add the pieces of Galletto, the tomatoes and the curry, covering with the broth.
Cook over low heat for 45 minutes, making sure nothing sticks to pan. Serve the Galletto with rice, topped with the remaining sauce.

Boil string beans in water with courgettes, carrots (peeled) and onion only for 20 minutes or until just firm. Chop vegetables and sausage and stuff the Galletto with the mix. Place your Galletto on a baking tray, with a little bit of oil, rosemary and garlic and put in the oven at 180° C. Cook for about 40 minutes.
