Awesome Peruvian Beef Entree Recipes

PERUVIAN BEEF SALTADO

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak, season with salt and pepper, and stir-fry until the meat is browned on all sides, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Using tongs, transfer the steak to a plate and set aside. To the drippings in the pan, add the onion, tomato, and garlic; season with salt, and pepper. Cook and stir it until the onions are soft and the tomatoes start to break down, about 2 to 4 minutes. Return the beef to the pan, add the soy sauce and red wine vinegar. Cook for 1 minute, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.

LOMO SALTADO (PERUVIAN STIR-FRIED BEEF WITH ONION, TOMATOES, AND FRENCH FRIES) RECIPE

Steps:

• In a wok or large cast iron or stainless steel skillet, heat 2 tablespoons (30ml) oil over high heat until heavily smoking. Meanwhile, season beef all over with salt.
• Push scallions and peppers to the side and add tomatoes to the pan, allowing them to sear on one side, about 30 seconds. (If your burner isn't very strong, you can remove the scallions and peppers from the pan before adding the tomatoes to guarantee good searing. Otherwise, leave them in.) Try not to let the tomatoes grow too soft and pulpy; it's better that they retain their shape rather than brown to the point of becoming mushy.
• Add garlic and ginger and cook, tossing and stirring constantly, until lightly sautéed and fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add soy sauce and vinegar and toss to combine.
• Spoon stir-fry onto plates with a mound of cooked rice and French fries and serve right away.
