Peruvian Salchipapas

Salchipapas

A poor man's dish that became a popular "fast food" in Peru. The word Salchipapas derives from its main ingredients: salchicha – sausage and papa – potato.

Thinly sliced pan fried hot dogs or other sausages are mixed with French fries and served with various sauces. Most often this dish is sold by street vendors or simple restaurants for a few Soles.
