Papa a la Huancaína
Named after the highland city of Huancayo, this dish is now one of Peru's most iconic starters, found on menus nationwide.
Boiled potatoes bathed in a creamy, spicy Peruvian cheese and chilli sauce — a beloved cold starter named for the highland city of Huancayo.
Ingredients
Method
Blend cheese, aji amarillo, evaporated milk and oil until completely smooth.
Warm the sauce very gently — it should not boil, just warm through.
Arrange boiled potato slices on a bed of lettuce.
Pour the sauce generously over the potatoes and garnish with boiled egg and olives.
Warm the sauce only gently — boiling it can cause the cheese to split and the texture to turn grainy.
