Caldeirada (Portuguese pronunciation: [kaɫdɐjˈɾaðɐ], [kɐwdejˈɾadɐ]) is a Portuguese fish stew consisting of a wide variety of fish and potatoes, along with other ingredients. A fishermen's stew, the dish has been described as "a grand and glorious fish muddle that varies from town to town and depends on what the fisherman have managed to catch."
Caldeirada is similar to other types of fish stew, such as the French bouillabaisse, Greek kakavia, Spanish zarzuela, and Italian cacciucco.
One cookbook states that the dish typically consists of "a fifty-fifty mix of lean and oily fish" along with shellfish such as clams and mussels, and often squid or octopus as well. This recipe used two kinds of oily fish (such as mackerel, swordfish, or tuna) and two kinds of lean whitefish (such as cod, monkfish, hake, flounder, and haddock), plus shrimp, mussels in the shell, and squid.
One cookbook gives as a typical assortment in a caldeirada conger eel, angel shark, sea bass or sea bream, red gurnard, sardines, ray, shrimp, and clams. One cookbook recommends about 11 ounces of fish per person. Other components of the dish include vegetables (such as potatoes, onions, green peppers, tomatoes, and tomato purée or tomato paste); spices (such as salt and black pepper, bay leaf, coriander, parsley, sweet paprika, or oregano), and other ingredients (such as vermicelli, olive oil, port wine, white wine, and whisky or brandy). Some recipes do not add salt to caldeirada, because the brininess of the shellfish already adds salt.
Oooh
[Verse 1:]
Sitting here in this empty room
Just thinkin of what we've been through
Missing you, wanting you
Tonight
Memories of you and I keep haunting me
Can't believe it's reality that you've gone away from me
[Chorus:]
And now all I can do is cry
Tell me how, how can I say goodbye
Got me goin crazy
This is not the way that it was supposed to be
Remember when we said that it was you and me
Forever and eternity
Now you're no longer in my life
No it's not the same
Tryna to cope without you
Drivin me insane
Tell me what to do
How can I stop the pain
The pain of losing you baby
Cause you're no longer in my life
I gotta get over you (ahhh)
[Verse 2:]
Everyday, I relive the times we used to share
Boy, just help me
I can't live without his touch
Without his love
Please tell me why
Remember when he used to say he'd never leave
Oh God, I'm down on knees
Won't you just bring my baby back to me (ohh)
[Chorus:]
And now all I can do is cry
Tell me how, how can I say goodbye
Got me goin crazy
This is not the way that it was supposed to be
Remember when we said that it was you and me
Forever and eternity
Now you're no longer in my life
No it's not the same
Tryna to cope without you
Drivin me insane
Tell me what to do
How can I stop the pain
The pain of losing you baby
Cause you're no longer in my life
I gotta get over you (ahhh)
Got me goin crazy
This is not the way that it was supposed to be
Remember when we said that it was you and me
Forever and eternity
Now you're no longer in my life
No it's not the same
Tryna to cope without you
Drivin me insane
Tell me what to do
How can I stop the pain
The pain of losing you baby
Cause you're no longer in my life
