PERUV

A pumpkin-cinnamon dessert sweetened with flovoured sugar syrup. These Peruvian doughnuts are a typical peruvian treat and are as good as American doughnuts but are much easier to make. The principle ingredients are squash and sweet potato or pumpkin. It is served in a doughnut form and served with a syrup made from chancaca. Picarones are addictively good and not just because they are fried dough. They have an intriguing savory sweet flavor.

Inspired by a childhood favorite of my Peruvian friend, Aji de Gallina, this creamy, slightly spicy chicken dish has been transformed into a low-carb, nutritious, and healthier version of the original. Packed with protein, it's a delicious dinner option for the whole family. Serve it with Miracle Rice for a low-carb twist, or pair it with Basmati rice for a more traditional touch.
