BRAISED PORK WITH CUMIN (ROJõES)
This is a typical Portuguese pork dish. But the best rojoes you'll find is in the norther part of Portugal, in the Minho distric (Pont De Lima) thats the place to go for the best rojoes ever, served with a nice bottle of wine from the region. Can't ask for anything better.
