Carne de Porco à Alentejana

Carne de Porco à Alentejana is one of the most traditional and popular pork dishes of Portuguese cuisine. It is a combination of pork and clams, with potatoes and coriander.[1] Usually about 800 grams of pork is marinated for some time in white wine, paprika, chopped garlic, coriander, bay leaf, and salt and pepper.[2] It is then fried until golden brown at which point clams are added and cooked.[2] Traditionally this dish is served with cubed French fries or baked potatoes.

It is typical from the Algarve region in Portugal, even though the name is Alentejana (from Alentejo). It was added because Alentejo is well renowned for their pork.
