If you have come to Peru and have tried the manjarblanco alfajores (or if you prepared it), you’ll know how tasty it is. Well, for this weekend we have a variation: the sweet potato alfajores.

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.

Did you like the papa a la huancaina (Huancayo-style potatoes)? you must try the ocopa. It has a different sauce, but equally delicious.

This recipe is for 6 people.

No, this isn’t the same than the escabeche de pescado (pickled fish) - but it’s very good too!. It’s prepared with tuna or some white fish, olive oil, Mirasol chili/pepper, garlics, onions, white wine, vinegar… yes, ok, it requires a little of work, but… all good things (and good food) needs a little effort. If you like to cook, you’ll love it. If you only like to eat, you’ll adore it. This recipe is for 6 people.
