Peruvian food is a magnificent melange of Indigenous, Spanish, Chinese and Japanese ingredients and techniques, and I love how this is illustrated in the dish we’re having for dinner tonight: lomo saltado.
This recipe, from the embassy of Peru, is true to the dish’s style and substance. It’s a classic example of Peruvian Chifa cuisine, a blend of Chinese technique and ingredients from Spain, as well as those native to the Peruvian mountains.
