About Arroz Chaufa
Arroz chaufa is a Peruvian Chinese rice dish, built here around chicken, egg and sillao, or soy sauce. Emilys Velasquez's rendition keeps the cooked rice separate until the stir-frying stage.
Garlic, ginger and five-spice season the chicken before it meets the wok. Soy sauce also coats the rice, while scrambled eggs bring another texture to the mixture.
The chicken, rice and eggs are combined during the final stir-fry. Cut green onion finishes the dish at serving, adding a fresh aromatic element over the savoury rice.
