“Porrusalda” (or “purrusalda”) is a dish that was originally Basque but is typical of other parts of Spain too. In the past it was traditionally made during Lent and is believed to be a dish of humble origins, being made with ingredients that were always available: leeks and potatoes. In better times, when there were more ingredients, pumpkin was usually added to it. Nowadays, it is eaten at any time of year, and the pumpkin is usually replaced with zucchini or other vegetables. Depending on the region, other ingredients such as meat or fish may be added.
