La cocina de Lima y de la costa central

cerviche de mariscos [courtesy of promperu]

The cuisine of Lima and the central coast sounds wonderful with moorish, african and chinese influences. Cerviche is a spicey dish of white fish marinated in lime or lemon mixed with chili. Another favourite recommended by Annie is Chupe de Camarones (shrimp soup). In Lima they also really like Causa Limena which is basically mashed yellow potato dumpling mixed with lemon, onion, chili and oil with either tuna or chicken. Sounds delicious..

My, my - you have been busy blogging! It's fab! And that plate of food looks amazing (you know how I feel about seafood). There's a Peruvian restaurant in London Bridge and it's got excellent reviews - when are we going? x

I did think of you missy milligan- that style of cooking and ingredients is so you! Annie has given me a list of restaurants to go to as long as my arm! Fantastic news about the Peruvian restaurant- we're off! I'm so excited I could burst.
