The key to this recipe are good fennel sausages and crispy fresh vegetables. Italian fennel sausages (salsicce) or similar, well-seasoned coarse sausages are suitable for the fried meatballs. I personally use Spanish sausages from my favourite organic butcher, Cuxland Pur. Their sausages are very well seasoned with fennel and therefore fit perfectly into this dish.

AND THIS IS HOW THE WIFE OF THE CAPTAIN DOES IT
You can use chorizo instead of fennel sausage. To do this, dice the chorizo and also fry vigorously. The paprika in the chorizo gives an appetizing orange note and a strong, aromatic taste.

We ate the best Bolo de Caco on the village square in Monte above Funchal on Madeira island. The atmosphere there was special. It was lunch time, we were – away from the hustle and bustle of basket sled tours and cableway – alone in the square, apart from some mangy dogs hanging around and taking sometimes a sluggish effort to chase a pigeon. And there we discovered BOLO DE CACO.
