Quinoa Pesto
This recipe puts a healthy, high-protein spin on Tallarines Verdes, a beloved Peruvian classic traditionally made with pasta.
Aeropuerto (Peruvian Chifa Classic)
This is aeropuerto the way I make it at home — bold, fast, and full of intention.
Beef Stew (Estofado de Res)
Estofado de res is slow-simmered, homestyle comfort: tender beef in a rich, savory sauce with vegetables.
Creole Soup (Sopa Criolla)
Sopa criolla is a hearty Peruvian soup with tender beef and delicate angel hair pasta in a creamy, gently spiced broth.
Picarones
Picarones are Peru’s favorite street-food dessert: airy rings made with squash and sweet potato, fried until golden and drizzled with syrup.
Peruvian Empanadas
Golden, flaky and generously filled, Peruvian empanadas are a bakery classic made for sharing.
Ceviche + Leche de Tigre
Fresh, bright, spicy, and full of flavor: classic ceviche with its irresistible leche de tigre is one of the most iconic combinations in Peruvian cuisine.
Tuna Causa (Causa de Atún)
Causa de atún is one of my favorite ways to turn simple potatoes into something special: creamy, fresh, a little spicy, and SO good! The potato mixture is seasoned with ají amarillo, fresh lime, and avocado oil, then filled with creamy tuna and avocado, because a causa without avocado just isn’t the same.
Classic Peruvian Hen Soup (Caldo de Gallina)
Caldo de gallina is comfort in its purest form: a nourishing, restorative, deeply flavorful soup and a true Peruvian classic.
