This is the molho à campanha to which are added some liquid from the feijoada and some malagueta peppers (very small, hot Brazilian peppers, pictured above).
Basic recipe for molho à campanha:
1 large onion, minced
2 medium-size firm, ripe tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 small green bell pepper, cored, seeded and minced
¼ cup vinegar
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
salt to taste
Mix all ingredients. Add water if the vinegar taste is too strong. Just before serving add ½ cup of feijoada liquid and 1 or 2 finely chopped malagueta peppers. I usually do not add the peppers but use a few drops of the liquid instead. That is hot enough for me!
