Cazuela (Peru)

Cazuela is a typical dish of the Amazonas Region in Peru. In each province or district of Amazonas, the cazuela has its own way of cooking. This one is from Chachapoyas.

Preparation

Boil a piece of hen, a good piece of meat and a good piece of sheep. Add some wild cabbage, rice, carrot, sweetcorn grains, and a glass of white wine.

A few minutes before taking the saucepot out of the fire, add some milk and vermicelli noodles (also called cabello de ángel noodles). It is necessary to try that the cazuela has sufficient broth or juice to be able to be served as a soup.
