Two of my friends decided it was time I learned how to make my favorite Peruvian dish,
Ají de Gallina. So they came over last Friday and we cooked together for a few hours, one of my favorite things to do.
Ají de Gallina literally means Pepper of the Hen and the idea is that you can use your oldest, toughest bird, simmer it in this spicy yet creamy sauce, and get a fantastic result. It's served over rice and potatoes, with hardboiled egg and olives as condiments. As an added plus, we made a
refresco, or drink, out of apple,
cocona, and
maracuya. Peruvian food is certainly not a hardship!
