Lomo Saltado

Lomo Saltado

Lomo Saltado is a famous Peruvian stir-fry dish that originated from Chinese immigrants in Peru. Chinese Peruvian fusion cuisine in Peru is known as chifa which comes from the Chinese words “chi fan” meaning “to eat.” Chifa uses Chinese techniques (stir-fry) and ingredients (soy sauce & oyster sauce) and applies them to local ingredients (potatoes, beef loin). Lomo Saltado literally means “jumped loin” – beef tenderloin stir-fried over high flame (“jumped”) with onions and vegetables.

Pollo a la Brasa

Pollo a la Brasa

One of the better known Peruvian dishes in the US, Pollo a la Brasa is a roasted / rotisserie chicken packed with Peruvian flavors with influences of the Chinese and Japanese communities. The key to this recipe is the intense flavored green sauce, Aji Verde, that accompanied the roasted chicken.

Papa Rellena

Reviews

An amazing family experience!

"The Explore Mexico box was fantastic. The box includes 3 authentic Mexican recipes (4 servings each), 5-7 pre-measured spice and sauce mixes, a shopping list for fresh ingredients, a fun cooking tool, Mexico flag pin + sticker, and a 16-page Cultural Explorer booklet. The recipes were easy to follow even with kids, and the flavors were so authentic. I loved that it wasn't just cooking - we learned about the Aztec & Mayan history, geography, music and language too. It made dinner feel like a mini trip to Mexico. Everything was well organized. Will definitely be ordering another country!"

Great box for our little foodie!

Still checking it out, but so far, so good.

"So far so good. We accidentally used the wrong seasoning packet on our first meal, lol, but it was a great learning experience. So far everything seems easy to follow. I may have more thoughts after a few more boxes."
