Eel in teriyaki with zucchini and black pork sausage
The Americans invented a name for dishes where fish and meat share the leading role. The suggestive Surf & Turf (here‘s the name) is a proposal by chef Cyril Devilliers and consists of a teriyaki eel with courgette and black pork sausage.
Products used

Eel (yellow)
Characterized by its serpentiform body, cylindrical in the front and long in the rear, and narrower in the tail area, eels have a wide head with tubed-shaped nasal orifices and small rounded eyes.
The Óbidos lagoon is the breeding ground for a series of fish such as sea bass or sole, hardshell mollusks, such as clams and cockles, and mollusks such as these magnificent eels, our featured product this week. Characterized by its serpentiform body, cylindrical in the front and long in the rear, and narrower in the tail area, eels have a wide head with tubed-shaped nasal orifices and small rounded eyes. The animal goes through different phases in its life – being the yellow phase, the one with most significant growth – and can be found all over the North Atlantic, the Mediterranean Sea, and along the coast of Africa. Fried eels and eel stew are two of the very typical dishes made with eels.
Regions

Center
The centre of Portugal is proof that virtue (or, in this case, the virtues) is in the middle. From the highest mountain in mainland Portugal to the world’s biggest waves, there is a little bit of everything, without forgetting priceless monumental and human heritage. Schist villages, castles that look like they have emerged from fairy tales, one of the oldest universities in Europe, and even a Portuguese-style Venice.
