Hello lovely readers today I am preparing vegetarian version of Lomo Saltado , I prepared a version of this dish before but this one its going to be a little different , so if you like stir fry veggies and french fries this dish is for you.
Some tools/Ingredients I used , will be at the bottom of the post
Vegetarian Lomo Saltado | Servings: 4
- 750 gr of Tofu, in dices
- 3 Red Onions , in wedges
- 4 Tomatoes , in wedges
- 1 Tablespoon of "Ají amarillo" paste
- 2 "Ají Amarillo" Chili or Any chili, in julienne
- 1 Tablespoon of Sugar
- 2 Tablespoon of Oyster Sauce
- 5 Tablespoon of Soy sauce
- 1 1/2 Cup of Cornstarch
- 1/4 Cup of Cilantro
- 1 Tablespoon of Sesame oil
- 4 Portions of french fries
- Salt and Pepper
This is Stir fry so many of the ingredients have to be cooked fast and in a hot pan or wok, if you have a small pan do it in two or three batches , I decided to add some ingredients that regular "Lomo Saltado" does not have since we are losing some of the meat flavor but with the little help of other ingredients this dish can be as delicious as any Lomo Saltado
Steps :
- Mix cornstarch with a tablespoon of salt , then dip your Tofu there , reserve.
- In a hot wok or pan add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil them add the tofu , cook 30 seconds per side , once its golden reserve.
- In the same wok add one tablespoon of vegetable oil then add onions, chili , ají amarillo chili, let it cook for at least 2 or 3 min, saute, then add tomatoes , tofu , soy sauce, oyster sauce , saute. End the dish with some chopped cilantro, pinch of black pepper and sesame oil .
- Serve the dish on top of french fries, in that way all the juices will fall over the fries (just to think about it makes me hungry)
That is it guys , simple and delicious dish that you can prepare at home in a flash.
