Horta'nın Peixinhos'u

Peixinhos da horta is a Portuguese dish consisting of green beans that are dusted in flour, then fried. The name means fish from the garden because it resembles small fried fish. Although the dish is traditionally prepared with green beans, some might use red peppers or sweet potatoes instead. Interestingly, peixinhos da horta was introduced to Japan in the 16th century, and over time it evolved into one of the Japanese staples – the popular tempura!
