Vindaloo is a very popular chilli and vinegar based fiery hot dish from Goa, on the western coast of India. Vindaloo is popular not only in India, but also among the Europeans and other westerners. You can use any type of meat such as chicken, beef or pork or even with seafood in your Vindaloo. Or perhaps just make it with vegetables for the non meat eaters amoungst us.
Goa was occupied by the Portuguese for a number of years and so naturally, the Portuguese style of cooking has a marked influence on the local dishes and Indian food recipes of Goa. Some people include ‘aloo’ (potatoes) in this recipe, but the original vindaloo dishes do not have aloo. Try cooking this simple recipe for Chicken Vindaloo
