Prego sauce is Portugal’s gift to the steak roll, and Calisto’s makes it the traditional way — tomato, garlic, bay and bird’s eye chilli in a rich sauce built for pan-fried meat.
Savoury tomato depth with garlic through the middle and a steady chilli warmth at the end — made to soak into a fresh Portuguese roll.
How to use prego sauce
- Simmer pan-fried steak in the sauce, then pile into a crusty roll
- Do the same with chicken breasts for a chicken prego
- Use as a burger sauce with real Portuguese credentials
- Spoon over rice, chips or a trinchado-style beef stew
It’s the taste Jorge Calisto served when the first restaurant opened in 1992 — now Halaal certified and delivered anywhere in South Africa. Your prego nights start here. Pair it with anything from the classic peri-peri line-up for the full Portuguese spread.
