Thank you so much for this recipe. It sounds just like a dish I've enjoyed many times over the years at Antonio's, Porte do Mos, Lagos. I've asked the waiters for the recipe several times and they have more or less described your version. I thought there must be some "secret" ingredient as it is so delicious! Again my thanks. Mike.
