About Carne de vaca assada no forno
Carne de Vaca Assada No Forno, or oven-roasted beef, is a traditional Portuguese dish known for its rich flavors and simplicity. Typically prepared with a beef roast seasoned with garlic, olive oil, paprika, white wine, bay leaves, and sometimes fresh herbs like parsley or thyme, it’s slow-cooked until tender. Regional variations may include vegetables, such as potatoes and onions, roasted alongside the meat to soak up the savory juices. This dish is a source of protein and essential vitamins like B12, iron, and zinc. Olive oil, a heart-healthy fat, adds nutritional value, while the slow roasting process minimizes the need for excessive fats or oils. However, depending on portion sizes and accompanying starches, it can be calorie-dense and should be balanced within a meal. Its deep flavors make it a satisfying option for special occasions or hearty family meals.
