This is one of the easiest Peruvian dishes and was one of the ones that got my mom out of a bind when she was short on time to cook, and it's also one that has been very well-received by my children and husband, so much so that my youngest son has renamed it the rice burger.
Ingredients: (4 people)
1 and 1/2 cups of cooked white rice
1 lb of ground beef
1/2 cup crushed tomatoes
1 small onion, finely chopped
1/2 tsp ground garlic
1 cup of olives cut into slices or quarters
1/4 cup of raisins
3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped into squares
Finely chopped parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
In a medium or large skillet, brown the onion and garlic, then add the ground beef. Let it cook until the liquid from the meat dries up and it is lightly browned.
Next, add the crushed tomatoes, mix, and let it cook for approximately three minutes. Then add the olives, raisins, eggs, salt, pepper, and parsley to taste. Stir gently to avoid damaging the boiled egg pieces.
Serve In a small mold or cup, place the rice, pressing it down so that it comes out compact when removed from the mold. It's best to moisten the mold so the rice doesn't stick. Then, add a portion of the ground beef mixture and finish with a final layer of rice. Ready!
Enjoy!
