Dona Maria

She is a local at Vila Nova de Milfontes Market where every day she sets up her stall full of fruits and vegetables.

“Of all the sellers,
The happiest is Maria,
Whom with her friendly talk
captivates the entire crowd!”

A lovely poem by a close friend of hers is the best introduction to Dona Maria. She is a local at Vila Nova de Milfontes Market where every day she sets up her stall full of fruits and vegetables, most of them cultivated by herself, like the broccoli from which she collects the magnificent sprouts used in this recipe.
