Portuguese Carne Assada (Roast Beef) with Potatoes Recipe
Portuguese carne assada is a succulent, slow-roasted beef dish defined by a robust garlic and red wine marinade that creates a deeply savory glaze. This authentic recipe utilizes a traditional refogado base of sliced onions, smoky chouriço sausage, and pimenta moída (crushed red pepper sauce) to infuse the potatoes and carrots with a rich, aromatic heat and tender texture.
