The translation of Quajado/Kwazado is bake. Therefore you'll get mince bake (ground beef), which I posted last week Quajado de Carne, a spinach bake for Pesach (Mina), chicken bake-Quajado de gayina, a regular spinach bake –Quajado de pazi. These recipes are all tried and tested and are from The Sephardi Culinary Tradition printed in Cape Town in 1984 by Elsie Menasche, according to the tradition of the Jews of Rhodes. There are other types of bakes, which are called Fritada.
