Dobrada (food)

Dobrada (in Portugal) or dobradinha (in Brazil) is a traditional Portuguese and Brazilian dish made from a cow's flat white stomach lining commonly flavoured with paprika, tomato paste, onion, garlic, clove and red pepper paste. Usually decorated with green onion and mint. The adding of sliced carrots and butter beans are essential as well. White rice is often served alongside this dish, especially in the city of Porto where it is called tripas à moda do Porto.[1]

The word "dobradinha" (from the Portuguese word "dobro" which means double) is also used in Portugal for the achievement known as double in association football.
Dobradinha

It originated from North of Portugal, where it is called dobrada or tripas. Hence, Portugal's northern inhabitants of the city of Porto are called tripeiros for their ancestral dishes. It is a traditional dish in Portuguese and Brazilian cuisine.

It has been the theme of Fernando Pessoa poem, Dobrada à moda do Porto.[2]

The joke website of the UK Tripe Marketing Board featured the dish on its series of 2014 World Cup recipe cards.[3]
