Putting French Fries With A Beef Stir Fry = AMAZING | Sorted Food

[@L17peru]

As a Peruvian thank u for sharing our culture and the amazing food we have que viva Peru!!🇵🇪

[@SortedFood]

You are welcome. Always a pleasure.

[@danielatamayov]

L17peru THANK U SO MUCH SORTED ❤️❤️❤️

[@YTJRBC2]

As a colombian I gotta say, the Saltado kicks the ass out of our sudado XD

[@LJADLR]

@@YTJRBC2 sudado is completely different, we also have a few types of sudado. Everything is just delicious.

[@maireisenegger1]

as a chilean, peruvian food in general kicks the ass of all of most of out food

[@Moogerton9]

I'd love to travel with Ben and explore the culinary treasures of the world! Also, I have a question. I love coffee, and I was wondering if you guys would ever consider having coffee as a weekly theme, in order to enable my obsession with it, and to incorporate it into various dishes. There are so many possibilities! I've watched you guys for years, but I really can't remember if coffee has ever been one of the mystery ingredients before...

[@SortedFood]

We can definitely add it to the list!

[@Moogerton9]

Awesome!

[@TheCookingFoodie]

All my favorite things in one dish, definitely going to try it!

[@kimberlygrados1192]

Lomo saltado!!! One of my favourite dishes.

[@SortedFood]

Wahoo! Did we do it justice?

[@kevinponce8525]

Personally I've never seen it with peppers, but that aside it's perfect

[@SortedFood]

Ah interesting. Cheers!

[@wictonaye21]

SORTEDfood So the lime and coriander are just garnish?

[@kevinponce8525]

wictonaye21 The cilantro/coriander add flavor imo

[@AnaArantes]

I think Mike should really come visit Brazil: we have peanut butter sweets in every corner market, and we serve 70% of our food with rice and fries...

[@kohlinoor]

Agreed. Mike, go visit Brazil or I'll do it for you!!

[@DarkRulerHaDes666]

I can never come there, because those things will be the death of me.

[@huguito909]

Pensava que era mesmo uma coisa universal, em Portugal também fazemos o mesmo, nunca imaginei alguém achar estranho arroz e batatas no mesmo prato ahah

[@Asdrubalissimissimo]

I hope you will do "chicha morada"and "papas a la huancaina". I'm italian, but my neighboor is peruvian, and i swear, those are the best dishes i learnt from him (i have also started growing "aji amarillo" only for that lol)

[@funnysadgirl5395]

Guys I'm actually so proud of you guys doing Peruvian food, good on y'all!

[@maggiealelew]

This is my family's favorite dish and the one everyone remembers! Thank you for all of this Peruvian food love!! ❤️❤️🇵🇪

[@ClaudiaEncinas]

Loving this series! Peruvian cuisine is so rich and varied, I'm so glad you're doing it justice. I'm waiting for Papa a la Huancaina. Viva Peru!!

[@randallalston95]

Great video! My family is Peruvian and we make this a little differently based on recipes passed down from back home. We season the sirloin with salt, pepper, MSG, cumin, spiceless aji panca, and aji amarillo. When it's browned, we take the beef out of the pan (juices included) and put it in a bowl. Then we throw in the onions to soften a bit before adding the beef (not the juice!) back in. After a minute or so, add soy sauce and white vinegar and let it reduce a bit before adding the beef juice back in along with the sliced tomatoes. Once it's done turn off the heat and stir in some chopped cilantro. Serve over rice or french fries! Your version looks delicious too! I'll have to try it out.

[@aisa130]

This is how i learnt it from friends and family, im from peru myself :) Ive actually never cooked this with alcohol. I only use the red wine vinegar and soy sauce. For more flavour, i marinade the meat, onions and garlic with the vinegar before i stir fry it. Also, for this dish, you need high heat, if you have a propane stove, best kind. Otherwise what happens is your ingredients start to boil instead of getting sauteed. I have also yet to go to a restaurant back home that uses peppers as well in the recipe.

[@lisaboban]

I love Mike's "Nope" at the end. Nope!

[@Esther-oz4ts]

Haha, Mike's like I've tried it and nope. Not happening again.

[@grouch314]

Esther Gee he heard what happened to Barry in the cottage

[@Esther-oz4ts]

The Bathtub Incident of '09.

[@aqua199316]

I'm especially happy to see this after coming back from Lima last week! Hoping to see ceviche and anticuchos

[@geeblocks3981]

Those colours!!! My God!!! Such vibrant!!!

[@marvinko6610]

Gotta love passionate Ben. Next time he goes on holiday, give him a camera and force him to film stuff like when he was cooking on some rooftop. Would have loved to see that

[@elenita9328]

I'm from Peru and usually I don't see peppers, spring onions and red vinagre but sure it sounds like it would taste amazing too. :) I'm so happy for this week! Thanks for sharing our culture guys! :) x.

[@peachypeach]

There's a Singaporean/Malaysian dish that stir fried, sweet and sour french fries and luncheon meat(spam). I believe it probably had Hainanese roots. And evolved from the meat and potato stir frys. Into cooks just using pre-cook frozen french fries. Epic comfort food.

[@omnomnommidz3840]

peachypeach How have I not heard of this after 10 years of living in Singapore? Enlighten me kind stranger

[@gaiaang8112]

peachypeach I'm Singaporean and im kinda wondering what you're refering to... is it a dish where the potato is cubed? because i think i've seen that but not "chip/fry" shaped dishes like that

[@yudai2941]

Sounds good except for the Spam, I absolutely cannot eat that :p

[@leeyen098]

Malaysian here and I've never seen or heard of this?

[@DarkAngelz8]

I think I know what you're talking about. The version my dad cooks at home is with minced meat, hot dogs/luncheon meat, potato cubes and baked beans, cos aint no body got time to make sauce from scratch. Not sure of the origin, but I know it's food with cheap ingredients

[@erenefernandez1294]

I love the way you guys say lomo saltado. And it's one of my favorites

[@atinukeladipo2164]

I love the addition of wild rice. Very aesthetic

[@shirleycastle5170]

Love learning about new foods from different places. Thank you

[@taradirven7470]

Stir fry with french fries is one of my quilty pleasures. A takeout near me sells is and I go there so often they remember my order

[@joycetam3947]

So I guess you call it... Stir fries Forgive me

[@bluaaahhhh]

Lomo saltado!! Definitely this culinary mix is one of my faves. Mixing the fries in the sauce is glory. And also is pretty good with chicken.

[@MrHusseinberg]

Why are there dislikes in this video? I dont see why anyone could dislike these guys

[@PuccallpaGirl]

Viva Peru! I grew up in Pucallpa and it is amazing how the same dish changes depending on which region of the country you are in.

[@AlejandraGonzalez-jy7ld]

My favorite part of the video was Ben trying to pronounce aji amarillo LOL

[@spicefreak4726]

There are many different ways to pronounce that double l, depending on which spanish speaking region you ask. The extra h he put after the m, however, seems a little out of place.

[@juanaestrada2413]

i'm peruvian and yes, that is the way how picarones was made originally! Nowadays most people only use flour tough!

[@marioguzmanaza105]

I demand a entire month dedicated to Peruvian food :)

[@renatavc1986]

yesssss peru!!!!!!! I'm so happy you are cooking something from my country

[@stormbob]

That moment when my ears heard "we made it with alpaca" and I thought "Oh, they were on a farm or something with alpacas running around" and then it clicked with me what he meant when he said "we made it *with* alpaca."

[@BurmeseDishes]

Looks delicious. Great recipe! Can't wait to try this.

[@m.c.8188]

You guys should make carne asada fries they are so good.

[@MadiJunkie]

4:03 Mike looks like a hungry cat haha

[@deprofundis3293]

😂

[@collisionsc-7875]

Currently waiting for ceviche

[@SortedFood]

sundaysundaysunday

[@bradlangshaw3580]

We're off to Peru later this year. Love this recipe. Can't wait now to try this food for real. Keep it up Ben...

[@SortedFood]

Have a great time... I already know that you will!

[@CassAbroad]

I really enjoy how much I actually learn about culture and history through these cooking videos. I never knew there was a Chinese slave trade into South America. Now off to get educated on that.

[@SortedFood]

Classic dishes is such a good vehicle for accidentally absorbing history! So many stem from events or people through the years...

[@TeZapeo]

there was also black slavery. Actually the city of Pisco (where the name of the drink comes from) has lots of black population, descendants from former slaves.

[@froufroudeluxe]

French fries with beef stew is basically Belgium's national dish "friet met stoofvlees"...

[@martymcfly2863]

Lomo Satado rlly amazing

[@Erik_The_Viking]

Lomo saltado = goodness! We have a couple of places here in San Francisco that serve this, and I always order it!

[@ohgodno1655]

French fries with anything is always a good idea

[@lilacsmoon9067]

I love it !! i always have it when we go to the south american restaurant.

[@DarkRulerHaDes666]

The opening frame of this video is hilarious.

[@jesuizanmich]

I had never heard of Lomo Saltado using alpaca. Lomo usually means Sirloin, and people in the coast tend to assume that's Beef Sirloin. Maybe it's different in the Andes. Chinese immigrants would have probably been most comfortable using beef. Saltado in Spanish translates to saute, which is what stir frying is. You will find that Peruvians are fine serving anything with rice, including other starches such as potatoes and sweet potatoes.

[@MrPeruano101]

Thank you that is very well done

[@blopa623]

We do almost the same thing in Ecuador. If you want to level this up add a fried egg

[@jinnyneutronperu8147]

En Perú se como muy rico gracias por difundir nuestras gastronomía

[@maddygascar23]

I love Pisco! Especially in a Pisco Sour! One of my favourite cocktails of all time 🍹

[@SortedFood]

One of my new favs too!

[@Esther-oz4ts]

I don't know why, but it's never occurred to me that this type of fusion cuisine would be a thing. Just a couple of weeks ago, I learned about the existence of Cuban-Chinese food and it was fascinating.

[@harperb7446]

There should be an ultimate stir fry battle! I bet y'all would come up with some crazy combos!

[@shaunwells3371]

Ben I'd go on holiday with you. That Lomo saltado looks gorgeous.

[@victorroa4921]

Amazing dish!. Well done guys. love the show. Keep it up the great work!. I cannot wait what surprise you have for us on Sunday!.

[@nicolehughes2517]

I had Lomo Saltado in this tiny little restaurant in Peru and it was one of my favourite dishes of my trip. At first I thought rice and chips, that's a bit odd but it was really great.

[@Mattslayba]

YESSSSSS, this is sooo sooo good

[@homestray9905]

Great video! Love you Sorted keep it up

[@KeesaRenee]

Hello from Peru! Hearing Ben try to pronounce lomo saltado cracked me up (but in a good way). :D Vamos Perú!

[@anilurf]

lomo saltado is my favorite dish ever. it usually has aji amarillo instead of yellow and red pepper though. the scallions and the lime surprised me though, never seen it made like that. regardless it looks yummy

[@TrishhMakes]

Ufff lomo saltado. So good

[@freddiejo16]

that sirloin looked absolutely incredible.. and then you cut it up. bet jamie had a fit

[@paulagarciasantander41]

I love how you make a big deal out of pisco, here in Chile is our go to drink specially with younger people.

[@HeinekenLady]

Lomo Saltado 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍 absolutely love this meal. Do it at least once a month, will certainly try this recipe next month!

[@panicpollo92]

You can replace the meat with chicken or soy (vegan option) and the rice with quinoa, too. Always tastes good.

[@claudiarosas5563]

PERÚ 😍❤

[@stephaniefairley8326]

Ben, I would go on holiday with you. You visit such interesting places.

[@anniebieb]

What substitute can you use instead of alcohol?

[@rw9495]

Just last night I tried something a little out of the ordinary for me, I pan fried some chicken livers for the protein in my stir fry. They're actually really good with a fiery szechuan sauce!

[@chrizeldabernil8323]

Like Bistek. Which is the Filipino version of Beef Steak. Done with soy sauce, citrus, onions , french fries and black pepper. Figures since it is also fusion of Chinese, Hispanic and native cuisine of the Philippines.

[@ummehabibatasmia4770]

it looks sooooooo good!!!

[@senrioflove]

I'm so hungry I shouldn't be watching so many of your videos right now!

[@trikgirl2005]

Pollo saltado is my favorite 🤤

[@wyomingborn1982]

Wow, that looks delicious! Oddly enough, I have most of these ingredients here. Will have to see if I can find the brandy!

[@bluebrrybrain]

A lot of common Portuguese dishes have fries and rice or roast potatoes and rice

[@sativumcoalho3920]

SORTEDfood: the culinary adventures of Ben & friends.

[@rebeccacarlin6103]

There's a Peruvian restaurant an hour from me that serves this dish. I'm going to have to pay them a visit tomorrow!

[@calumhewlett8385]

Probably one of my favourite dishes in Cusco on the Salkantay Trek last summer, you've gotta do a Pisco Sour next!?!?

[@LJADLR]

It is usually done with beef tender loin (lomo). Without spring onion, just coriander. Some people ad a little bit of stock when deglacing. Still looks well done, like the dish, not the meat. ;P

[@ASiby]

Ben's holidays are inspiring :)

[@SortedFood]

So much of the world to explore! Where would you love to go?

[@ernestolf6040]

seems amazing. just a couple of things made different in Peru: No pepers, no pisco (or not so much - the idea of pisco + hot wok is for it to flame up). also, not so much juice at the end. chilli of course!

[@indiragajah]

Ben is asking Mike to go on holiday with him. #Bike

[@raimaxmezuku9138]

this dish probably costs a lot of money in britain, but my mom makes lomo saltado with aji amarillo every week, i feel really lucky.

[@alonso1288]

Awesome video guys! As Peruvian thank you for sharing our culture. I know is a lot to ask but... any chance making Cuy ? Or at least it will be funny to see the guys reaction on how it looks! XD

[@kiranhanifa]

What could you substitute alcohol for in this case?

[@nekai855]

Can we do Greek week please 😊

[@brandoncastillo4763]

I am Peruvian Cook! , If u want peruvian recipes let me know

[@fagetaboutit4968]

i do lol

[@brandoncastillo4763]

u can look for @viandaperuana at instagram or write me at [e-mail] I can share with peruvian recipes

[@steph4142]

Definitely gonna try your recipe and compare it to my fave lomo saltado recipe and see who wins :)

[@RababHussainA]

It's my birthday today and I'll consider this recipe a birthday gift 🎁

[@scheertje1]

Could you use grappa instead of the brandy?

[@glasthala]

I want to try this with jackfruit (or tofu) to make it vegan!

[@vaniacc99]

The pisco Ben has is clear and the one I have at home is like golden/caramel color, so I was thinking maybe aguardiente would be fitter? Or it doesn't matter? 🤔

[@darkangel1287]

Lomo saltadooooo ❤️

[@doryld]

have they done a lvl up brownies?

[@Darth_Anubis]

Can this be done with chicken instead of beef or alpaca?

[@TeeGiovanna]

Traditionally the potatoes are mixed with the stir fry right at the end

[@chiakikuwahara5101]

Delicious!!!

[@pissedoffatyt]

nothing is wrong with the world when you get a fry that's covered in delicious beef sauce.

[@Stevie28]

Ouh I would love to travel with Ben. I'm sure it would be an awesome experience!

[@greciamiranda669]

You should try Bolivian food, it's amazing. Many dishes with aji are really great.

[@taranwilliams1995]

Its OK Ben I woiulkd go on a holiday with you :) For your next trip would you be interested in going to Louisiana, USA for creol and cajin cuisine? If you do go head over to Scott, Louisiana for boudin (boo-dan). Scott is the boudin capital and boudin is so amazing you'll never forget it. It's a sausage made with pork, trinity (onions bell pepers and celery) and rice all in a hog casing at its most basic form that is packed with spice and rich flavor but only made and sold in southern parts of Louisiana so it's hard to get it anywhere else without trying to make it or someone taking a trip there (at least to my konowlege). This delicacy is like fried chicken, a billion ways to make it. Now I never been to Louisiana but have had their food and it is amazing. Also I have an uncle from there and he introduced me to boudin when he got back from his trip one year and I fell in love since. And if you like spicy its the best kind in my opinion.

[@roxyxpop]

This Lomo Saltado looks 10 times better than the one my mom cooks😂😂 i didn't know it could be made with Alpaca or Pisco😳🤔

Peru, winner for 6 years in a row the World travel awards of best culinary destination of the world over other nominees like France, India, China and Italy.

[@jasperxalicecullen]

Looks super interesting, but is it possible to swap out the beef for chicken? If yes, are there any other changes we need to make?

[@SortedFood]

By all means... just make sure it's cooked right through. Whereas beef can be a little pink in the middle... not the same for chicken.
