Description

Embark into a fun cooking class and learn to prepare the most popular Peruvian Dishes. The experience begins with a visit to a local market accompanied by a professional chef and a cheerful tour guide who will explain all about the local market and also will teach you how to choose the best ingredients for the cooking experience. This is the perfect class for people who loves to taste traditional food while visiting a new country! You'll love the relaxed atmosphere without boring demonstrations because our chefs believe in the hands-on approach. To preserve the cultural origin of Peruvian cuisine. We use ceramic pots, the same as our ancestors did. In this way, food keeps all its natural flavors. The hardest part is to choose between these 4 tasty dishes options: Option 1, Fish: - Main Course 'Pescado a la Chorrillana': Fried onions, tomatoes, chili pepper, bay leaf, fish broth, and a Fish fillet cooked in low heat. - Starter 'Ceviche': This is the most popular dish among Peruvians. It is small size pieces of raw fish marinated in fresh aromatic lime juice tender onions, and boiled sweet potatoes mixed with optional Andean hot chilis. Option 2, Chicken: - Main Course 'Aji de Pollo': in English chili chicken (not spicy), consists of thin strips of chicken served with a creamy yellow and spicy sauce, made with ají amarillo (non-spicy yellow chilis), cheese, milk, and crunchy bread. - Starter 'Causa Limeña': Mashed organic yellow potatoes seasoned with lime and aji (hot pepper), and filled with fresh seasonal local veggies (it's a mild dish) Option 3, Meat:  - Main Course 'Lomo saltado': Stir-fried beef, onion, tomatoes, and chili peppers, traditionally served over French fries and accompanied by rice. - Starter 'Papa Rellena': Little balls made of mashed potatoes filled with either meat, vegetables or quinoa. They're fried and served with 'salsa criolla ' Option 4, Vegetarian: - Main Course 'Pimento Relleno': Stuffed capsicum, filled with fresh organic vegetables, quinoa, and aromatic herbs from the north of the country. - Starter 'Solterito': in English 'Single men' with green peas, fava beans, Quinua and olive oil.
