Peruvian Meat and Rice image

A Peruvian meal that my Japanese mother loved. This is her quick, altered version of the meal. Unfortunately she never measured the ingredients, so I always have to guess and taste-test this at every step. You can substitute ground turkey for pork if desired. I usually end up adding more cumin, garlic, and soy sauce right before serving.

This recipe was a disaster. The meat was tough and the rice was mushy. I would not recommend this recipe.
