In order that you may use in the best our fantastic kitchen, today we suggest a traditional Madeira Island dish call "bolo do caco"

"Bolo do caco"

For those who never heard of this type of bread typical of Madeira Island, "The cake is a bit of wheat bread, round and flat. Formerly it was baked on a piece of tile heated in the coals, a peculiarity that gave rise to its name."

There are different ways of cooking: on an iron plate, a frying pan, deep in a clay pot or iron or on a slab.

But be any utensil is used for baking is important that it is scalding.
 

Ingredients:

500 g sweet potatoes cooked and mashed
500 g flour
200 ml of warm water (+/-)
11 g fermipan
salt to taste
 

Preparation:

Boil the sweet potato, peeled previously, then cool a bit and breaks up with his hand. Joins flour, salt, fermipan, the warm water gradually and knead very well, like bread.   Go-joining the warm water whenever necessary. The dough should be slightly wetter than that of bread dough and the more the better it gets.  Once well mixed, allow to rest 15 minutes.They make up some balls that flour and gives them a flattened shape with your hands.  Cover and allow to rise in a warm place warm.  Add to frying pan into the flame in simmer, I used an iron skillet but may be a non-stick, without any fat. When hot place the cakes are already leaven.Porfazer I chose one at a time. Bake and when the base is browned, turn to bake the other side.  Once cooked, put themselves in the frying pan on high, like wheels, that will be running to bake completely.  Serve them warm with garlic butter. A delight! That is worth repeating again and again.
 

Notes: After baking the dough can be stored in refrigerator at least until the next day that behaves as if just made.
