Ingredients:
In order to cook the perfect Peruvian meal, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 pound of fresh fish, such as halibut or snapper
- 1 red onion
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 hot chili pepper
- 1 lime
- 1 sweet potato
- 1 cup of white rice
- 4 cups of water
- 1 bunch of cilantro
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking Instructions:
Step 1: Preparing the Fish
Begin by rinsing the fish and patting it dry with a paper towel. Cut the fish into bite-size pieces and season it with salt and pepper. Set the fish aside while you prepare the rest of the meal.
Step 2: Cooking the Potato
Peel the sweet potato and cut it into small cubes. Place the cubes in a pot of boiling water and let them cook for about 10 minutes, or until they are tender. Drain the water and set the potatoes aside.
Step 3: Cooking the Rice
Rinse the rice in cold water and then place it in a medium-sized pot with 4 cups of water. Bring the water to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let the rice simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the water is fully absorbed and the rice is cooked through.
Step 4: Preparing the Sauce
Peel and finely chop the red onion and garlic clove. Finely slice the chili pepper (seeded and deveined if you prefer a milder sauce). Juice the lime. Pick the leaves off the cilantro, roughly chop the stems and leaves, and set them aside.
Heat some oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and cook them until they're softened and lightly golden. Add the chili and cook for an additional minute. Then add the lime juice and the cilantro stems. Cook for 2 minutes and remove from the heat. Using a blender or food processor, blend the mixture until smooth.
In the same skillet used earlier, add another tablespoon of oil and briefly sautee the fish.
Step 5: Plating the Dish
Divide the rice between two plates. Top each with sweet potato cubes and pieces of the cooked fish. Pour the sauce on top of the fish and garnish everything with chopped cilantro.
Now it's time to enjoy your delicious and authentic Peruvian dinner for two! We guarantee your guests will be impressed with your culinary skills. Buon appetito!
