I learned to make this after visiting Peru in South America. This is a favorite in every restuant I went to. My Husband and brother-in-laws always request this for a favorite home cooked meal.

How To Make peruvian lomo saltado

  • 1
    PREP TIME: Easiest for me- roll steak into a roll, slice thinly. Slice onions from top to bottom about 1/2 inch thick. Chop garlic. Slice Tomatoes top to bottom about 1/2 inch thick. Slice peppers the same. Wash Potatoes and slice thickly like home fries.(Some people use frozen fries)I like to have this all on my cutting board and add one at a time.

    To start deep fry potatoes and put in pan in low heat oven to keep warm. Add slight oil to very hot pan. Add meat, onions,garlic,and peppers. Saute for 5 min, and rest of seasonings saute 5 more minutes don't let it dry out. Finally Add Tomatoes and saute for 2 minutes..This should be still some juice from the veges in the bottom.(For a tasty variation add 1/2 tube of Beef Choriso while cooking )
