Today we went shopping! Sooooo fun and guess what I brought home? Something from the bakery of course (among other things).
This popular pastry is called conchita rellena con manjar blanco. Believe me it tasted better in my mouth than it felt trying to pronounce it.
The yellow bowl of deliciousness you see in the middle is my tia's favorite way to make quinoa. In fact since it's the only way she prepares it she just calls it "quinoa".
Quinoa
Cook the quinoa like normal and put aside. Cut potatoes and mozzarella cheese in chunks. In a pot fry with finely diced onions, aji molido, and palillo and add the cooked potatoes and cheese. Serve with rice.
Okay this recipe is a few days old, but some how I forgot to post it.
Asado
In a medium bowl mix vinegar, aji molido, pepper, salt, ajo molido. Mix part of it with dice carrots, onions, and tomato. Stuff roast beef with this mixture and cover the meat with the rest of the dressing. In a big pot fry the meat on all sides until hard and sealed. Add the rest of the carrots, onions, tomato, and left over dressing and add water until the meat is covered in a pressure cooker. Cook for 2 hours and serve as always with rice or in this case it was also served with puree de papa.
Last but certainly not least... ARROZ CON LECHE!!!
Arroz con Leche
Put one cup of rice (washed), 3/4 C sugar, pinch of salt, 2-3 sticks of cinnamon, 4 cloves, 4-5 C water in a medium pot on high with a lid. When rice is soft and there is hardly any water left (if there is too much water add a little dissolved corn starch), add 1 tb vanilla and a little more sugar if needed. Stir in 1 can evaporated milk and continue mixing until it boils. Take out cloves and cinnamon sticks and cool. Serve with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
