Silpancho (Traditional Bolivian Meal)

This is a Bolivian Dish that I learned from my good friend’s mom. I am posting the entire meal since I think everything goes so well together. I have provided preparation steps below that you can do the day beforehand to help cut down on time spent cooking the day of. I recommend going to a latino market for the meat if possible. Tell them you want “carne por milanesas, mas suave” and it will be well worth it. I make Recipe #287183 with the leftover salsa the next day.

Bolivian Corn Chowder

This is from my 365 ways to cook Vegetarian cookbook. Corn is one of the few veggies my dear other half will eat, so I’m always on the lookout for new ways to fix it.

Belizean Style Habanero Sauce – Hot Sauce

I have tried many different hot sauces in my life, with different level of heat. My all time favorite is Marie Sharp’s. Nothing can beat the combination of heat and flavor. My wife was born in Belize and she introduced me to Marie Sharp and she gave us a tour of her factory outside Dangriga, Belize. When we visit Belize we always bring a ton of her sauces back. However, it can be hard to find hear in the states at a reasonable price, so I use this recipe. It is close enough to hers to satisfy the craving. I like to add some papaya to change it up a little. I have even added a little whiskey to it before. Tasted great.
