"This is an old recipe from my parents. In fact, it came from my father's family, from Portugal, which was adapted by my mother with some spices and this special Brazilian cream cheese - that you can replace with any similar curd cheese."

Place about 400 grams of Catupiry cheese or similar on the bottom of the clay bowl or a baking dish and place the shrimps already sautéed on top. Place in medium oven for about 20 minutes.

Add the rest of the chopped parsley and decorate to taste. As side dishes, you can serve white rice and shoestring potato. A good Chardonnay or even a Pinot Noir, harmonises very well.
