About Rissois de pescado

Rissois de Pescado are savory Portuguese fish turnovers, popular as appetizers or snacks. These golden, crescent-shaped pastries consist of a crispy breaded exterior and a creamy filling, traditionally made with minced fish like cod or shrimp, combined with onions, garlic, parsley, and a thick béchamel sauce. Originating in Portugal, rissois are deep-fried, giving them their signature texture and rich flavor. While they provide protein from the fish and essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, their preparation method impacts their health profile. Deep frying adds saturated fats and calories, making them an indulgent treat rather than a health-conscious choice. For a healthier alternative, baking could reduce fat content while maintaining much of the flavor. Rissois de Pescado are a delightful representation of Portuguese culinary tradition, loved for their satisfying taste and comforting texture. Moderation is key to enjoying these treats as part of a balanced diet.
