The rice is very important in Peru… not only in our main courses, but in desserts too (did you already prepare the arroz con leche (pudding rice? it’s not the same than this, and if you didn’t, you must try it). This pudding contains apricots, eggs, grated lime rind and, of course, rice and vanilla. All your family will love this dessert. The recipe is for 8 people.
The rice, as you have seen in many of peruvian recipes, has a special place in a lot of our dishes (remember the chaufa rice, chicken aguadito, tacu tacu and others). And, having one of the best seafoods in the world, the mix was inevitable. This time, you can prepare rice with shrimps for your family or guests. Simple and stylish, for 10 people.
The Chaufa rice is one of the Chifa main dishes. The Chifa is the delicious result of mixing the peruvian and chinese food; it’s so popular that you can easily find a Chifa restaurant almost in each neighbourhood in Lima. Of course, the Chaufa rice has a lot of variations (yes, we’ll have it here at Peru-Recipes.com too). We’ll see more of Chifa recipes later, but now it’s important to start here. Come on, it’s easy and tasty.
Aguadito is the diminutive of aguado, and it refers to something with an excess of water. But being a soup, there isn’t an excess; the name compares the dish with the arroz con pollo (rice with chicken), that’s prepared in a similar way and it’s traditional too. This recipe is for 8 people.
Maybe the Tacu Tacu, as some other dishes, has born from the need to use the remaining food and do not waste it. Its name comes from the quechua, and it means “scrambled”. Basically, it’s a mix from beans and rice with a lot of variations.
The tacu tacu is a very popular dish in Peru, simple, not expensive and tasty. Get 5 more people and enjoy this delicious recipe.
The arroz con leche is a delicious dessert typical of Peru, just like the mazamorra morada (we’ll see it soon). When you eat both desserts together, in the same dish (or glass, but without mix) it’s called “Clásico” (“classic”). That’s a reference to the main football teams in Lima, Universitario de Deportes and Alianza Lima, identified traditionally with white and black people: when they play a game, it’s a “classic”. But let’s see the recipe; it’s for 8 people.
