Peruvian food in the Andes
Peruvian food is by necessity different up in the Andes, where a corn and potato based diet is supplemented with meats such as alpaca and guinea pig.
Pachamanca is a famous dish where the meat in question is marinated in spices and then baked with potato and perhaps a few vegetables. The earthenware pot is placed on hot coals and then buried under grass and soil for about an hour and a half, meaning it cooks very slowly.
Fried guinea pig is also popular and it is worth noting that guinea pigs can reach a much larger size than those considered pets in the UK.
