They say that food is the best way to get to know a country, and Peru has a lot to tell. With its unique ingredients and recipes, in Round 14 we accompany you on this journey without you having to leave the table.
Top 5 star dishes of Peru
1. Ceviche, the pride of Peru
Ceviche is the star dish of Peruvian cuisine. Prepared with fresh fish marinated in lime juice, red onion, aji limo and cilantro, each bite is an explosion of freshness and flavor. It is served with corn, sweet potato and cancha, achieving a perfect mix of textures.
Each region gives it its own touch, but the classic from Lima is still the favorite.
2. Loin
Lomo saltado is proof that fusion is part of Peru’s DNA. Beef, onion, tomato and fried potatoes are sautéed in a very hot pan with soy sauce and spices, resulting in a dish with a lot of flavor and a perfect blend of Creole and Oriental.
Accompanied by rice, it is a must.
3. Chicken chili
Aji de gallina is one of those dishes that comfort the soul. Shredded chicken, aji amarillo, bread soaked in milk and a touch of nuts and cheese create a delicious cream, with that characteristic spicy touch.
It is served with rice, hard-boiled egg and black olives, and the truth is, it is hard to resist.
4. Causa limeña
The causa limeña is an appetizer that enters through the eyes and conquers the palate. It is made with yellow mashed potatoes seasoned with aji amarillo and lime, and filled with chicken, tuna or seafood. All in layers that look as good as they taste.
It is a fresh, light and perfect dish for any occasion.
5. Stuffed Rocoto
The stuffed rocoto, typical of Arequipa, is ideal for spicy lovers. It is a rocoto (similar to a bell pepper, but with much more character) stuffed with meat, onion, aji panca bell pepper and spices, au gratin with cheese.
A delight that tests even the bravest.
