Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Place the potatoes in a medium pot and cover with cold water by about an inch. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
2
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 15-20 minutes.
Aproximativ 20 min.
3
While the potatoes cook, prepare the sauce. Heat the vegetable oil in a small pan over medium heat.
4
Add the yellow aji pepper, red onion, and garlic to the pan. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the onion is softened and fragrant.
Aproximativ 7 min.
Nota bucătarului: Cooking the aji and onion mellows their flavors and enhances the sauce's depth.
5
Transfer the sautéed mixture to a blender. Add the fresh cheese, evaporated milk, saltine crackers, salt, and black pepper.
6
Blend the mixture until completely smooth and creamy. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more evaporated milk until it reaches a pourable consistency.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. The sauce should be rich and slightly spicy.
7
Drain the cooked potatoes and let them cool slightly. Slice them into thick rounds.
8
To serve, place a lettuce leaf on each plate. Arrange the potato slices on top of the lettuce.
9
Generously spoon the huancaína sauce over the potatoes.
10
Garnish each plate with hard-boiled egg halves and black olives.
