Order South American takeaway online

It’s not just Paddington Bear that comes from Peru – so does the Peruvian Appetiser of Papa a la Huancaína, aka Huancayo-Style Potatoes. (You can order this delicious dish through the Menulog app – for Paddington Bear, best go to Hamleys.) This de-lish staple dish is a starter of boiled yellow potatoes in a spicy, creamy sauce called Huancaína Sauce. (The name derives from a highland city called Huancayo, but  this dish actually originates from Peru’s capital, Lima – but we’re not picky.) Peruvian Ceviche is another traditional South American Cuisine widely eaten throughout the country and uses various Cuts of Fish Marinated in Lime & Lemon Juices, Marinated Fish, Finely Sliced Onion, Sweet Potatoes &  Habanero Chilli Peppers. Methods of preparing Ceviche vary across other Latin American countries but in Peru, Ceviche has been declared part of Peru's ‘National Heritage’ and has a holiday declared in its honour. (Why not call out a Menulog delivery bike to celebrate?)

The South Americans are masters of the Barbecue over charcoal or wooden embers. (And the Menulog app is a masterful way to get superb dishes to your postcode, post-haste.) The Latin American Mixed Grill goes by different names in different countries. Churrasco is how the boys (and girls) from Brazil call it. Churrasco is synonymous with perfectly grilled, impossibly tender, flavour-crammed beef – such as Picanha (aka Top Sirloin) – however the technique applies to other meats like Pork Belly, Lamb, Chorizo Sausage, Chicken, Duck, Tiger Prawns, but also Halloumi Cheese with herbs & spices. In neighbouring Argentina and Uruguay, it’s called Asado – with fire-touched cuts of Beef, Pork, Chicken, Kidneys, Liver, Chorizo & Sweet Morcilla Black Sausage. All carefully cooked on a Grill (aka Parrilla), then served with salads and sides. All share the superbly piquant Chimichurri Sauce or Marinade. The Green Version (aka Chimichurri Verde) is made from finely-chopped parsley, oregano, diced garlic and onion, vinegar and oil. The Red Version (aka Chimichurri Rojo) has added tomato and red bell pepper flakes. (Sadly, there’s only a red version of our sassy Menulog delivery bike, but we think you’ll still love it.)
