Lomo Saltado is one of Peru’s most popular dishes, it is also one of the easiest and affordable recipes to prepare. Lomo saltado is an example of Peruvian fusion since it comes to life because of its Chinese influence on local cuisine, combining Asian techniques and flavors with Peruvian ingredients like ají amarillo, cilantro, and tomatoes. Traditionally it is always combined and served with french fries and white rice. Here you’ll find different takes, tested by us and prepared by the best restaurants and chefs. Enjoy!
