More of a what are you cooking last night: my dads side of the family is from Portugal (Azores/the island of San Miguel specifically) and he makes a handful of dishes that are very near and dear to me. Over the years I’ve been doing my best to recreate these dishes w him while I still can. There is one dish that most likely would be my “final meal” dish and that would be his fava beans. It is a peasant dish (as are most of his recipes) and looks a bit of slop but holy feckin feck is it to die for… the marinade is simple (and found as the base for the majority of Portuguese home cooking): red wine, Portuguese red pepper sauce, Portuguese olive oil (yes, it actually tastes different than your standard italian olive oil) garlic, onion and pressure cook away. Also a good loaf of bread is a must as well to scoop up the marinade w each bite.

@Giles @goosehd belated Portuguese Fava Bean recipe:
1lb dry favas - soak for 3 to 4 days (change out water after second day)In crock pot
-3/4 cup Portuguese olive oil (Saloio is the easiest to find stateside)
-About 5 tablespoons tomato sauce
-About 1/2 cup red wine
-2-3 tablespoons crushed portugues red pepper
-1/2 yellow onion (fine diced)
-3-4 cloves garlic
-About 1 tsp black pepper
-add water, enough to cover favas- boil down on medium heat for about 20 minutes *gently shake cooker every 5 minutes or so, so beans do not stick to bottom
- release steam from pressure cooker (releasing steam can take some time, about 5 minutes)
-remove cover and continue to cook down on medium heat for about another 5 minutes till desired consistency
-lastly, salt to taste, about 1/2 tbs
