A typical Brazilian dish - believe it: it´s dangerous shark!

Cação, as medium sized sharks are known in Brazil is a delicious dish, typical all along the Brazilian coast.

A nice shark steak, braised with various vegetables, cassava meal paste (known as "pirão"), stewed brown beans, rice and a solid egg / tomato salad , is part of Latin-American cooking masterpieces.

Irresistible!
