Ceviche:
Ceviche is a staple seafood dish in many Latin American countries. Ecuadorian ceviche more like a soup than a salad. It is served with plantain chips (chifles), pop corn and is not accompanied with chili of any kind.
Llapingacho:
Llapingacho is a traditional Ecuadorian dish of potato patties or thick potato pancakes stuffed with cheese and cooked on a hot griddle until crispy. It it accompained with sausage, egg, avocado, lettuce and tomatoe.
In this cooking class, you learn to cook Ecuadorian dishes together. You will visit Maria’s home and make the most Ecuadorian delicious food.
It takes two hours: in one hour we will prepare the ceviche and llapingacho, the most popular meals in Ecuador. We will cook the shrimps for the ceviche and make the sauce for the ceviche. Peel the potatoes and cook them. We make the shape of the tortillas and fry with the rest of the ingredients: egg and sausage. We cut the avocado, tomato and lettuce.
Besides, you will learn some tips how locals make Ecuadorian cuisine and talk about traditions.
My name is Maria Viteri. I have been cooking for 23 years. I had a restaurant for one year where I used to cook Ecuadorian typical food. Since 2000 I have been working in hospitality, tourism and gastronomy business. I started cooking classes in 2017 and in 2019 I organized Ecuador food tours. I like to show people from different countries how to make real Ecuadorian food and talk about Ecuador, places to visit and to do. I have been doing cooking classes for special events as birthday gifts, for couples, friends and families with kids.
