Tasty Portuguese Stuffed Bread with Shrimp
Ingredients
1 Alentejo bread (or round homemade bread)
1 ripe tomato
Mozarella cheese (to taste)
1/2 chopped onion
1/2 cup of white wine
1 bay leaf
Oregano (to taste)
Bacon, cut into small pieces (to taste)
Fresh mushrooms cut into quarters (to taste)
Cooked shrimp kernels (meat) (to taste)
Preparation
Open a lid at the top of the bread and remove all the crumb from the inside.
Place the bread in the center of a baking tray and arrange the crumbly bits and the lid around it.
In a pan with a little olive oil, sauté the onion, when it's transparent, add the diced tomatoes cut into cubes and the bay leaf.
Stir well and combine the mushrooms, bacon and shrimp.
Sprinkle with the white wine and sprinkle with oregano and let it cook until the bacon is cooked.
Check the seasoning and remove from the heat.
Put some mozarella cheese inside the bread at the bottom, and fill the bread with the mixture from the pan.
Top it off with some more mozarella cheese and sprinkle with oregano.
Bake it in the oven at 180°C or 350°F until the cheese is melted.
