Agriade Saint-Gilloise

Let’s Eat the World - Cook’n With Class Experiences
Start this recipe the day before as there is no way to rush the cooking process. Stewed for a long time, similar to a Provencal daube, Agriade Saint-Gilloise is even better when reheated.

Notes

You will also hear this recipe be called Aigriada - aigre is the French word for sour - but no worries this is not a sour dish at all!
