PORTUGUESE CHOURICO, BEANS, AND RICE
I grew up on chourico, and this dish is a Portuguese comfort food that my mom always made. I took it upon myself to replicate it with a bit more kick, but even with the changes, it reminds me of being a kid. It's such a warm and satisfying dish.

PORTUGUESE SWEET RICE (ARROZ DOCE)
Sweet Rice is as individual as the cooks who make them. I've tasted sweet rice by different cooks, but I've never tried one that came close to the creamyness, and sweet, lemony flavour of my grandma's rice. This is her recipe. It takes about 30-45 minutes to make, but the results are well worth it.

- Turn stove to maximum. In a large pot add water. Peel most of the rind from one lemon and add the peels to the pot. Set lemon aside and turn stove down to medium.
- Add salt and margarine.
- When water is boiling, add rice. Stir constantly.
- When most of the liquid boils away, add 1/2 cup of milk. Stir. Repeat this step until all the milk is added.
- Remove rind from pot.
- Grate the rest of the lemon zest and add it. Add sugar. Remove pot from element.
- Slowly stir in egg yolks. (add a little bit of milk to the yolks first).
- Return pot to the element just until the rice boils. Stir constantly to avoid burning!

- Tip: for a stronger lemon flavour, use two lemons. Peel most of the rind from one for the cooking process, and grate most of the zest from a second lemon to add at the end. For a weaker flavour, use only one lemon and make it stretch for both.

PORTUGUESE DUCK RICE
This is a version of the classic Portuguese dish of duck & rice, which uses the fragrant, fatty poaching stock from the duck to cook the rice
Provided by Rosie Birkett
Categories Dinner, Main course
Time 2h15m
Number Of Ingredients 17
Steps:
- Put the duck in your largest pan, cover with water and add the coriander, bay, thyme, star anise, leek top, onion, carrot, orange zest and a grinding of black pepper. Place over a medium heat and bring to the boil, skimming off any scum from the surface. Turn down the heat slightly, cover and simmer for 45 mins, then turn off the heat and let the duck cool in the stock for 15 mins. Drain the stock from the duck, reserving it to cook the rice. Leave the duck to rest until cool enough to handle, then shred the meat away from the bone.
- Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. To make the rice, heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat and sauté the leek, onion and garlic for 10-12 mins or until soft and aromatic. Add the rice and fry for 5 mins or until the grains are turning golden and crispy, and sticking to the pan. Add 400ml of the duck stock and cook for 15 mins, covered, without stirring, or until the rice is puffed and dry.
- Stir the duck meat and orange juice through the rice, season, then transfer the mixture to an oiled roasting tin or casserole dish. Top with the chorizo and place on a high shelf in the oven to cook for 20-25 mins or until the rice is crisp and golden. Garnish with coriander or mint leaves, and serve with a salad, if you like.
