Arroz Chaufa

Cold rice fried hard in a wok with chicken, spring onion, ginger, soy sauce and strips of thin omelette — Chinese fried rice as Peru rebuilt it, and now eaten more than the original.

Chifa · Peruvian fried riceAn ownerless traditional dish, so no cook is credited. `Chaufa` redirects to `Arroz_chaufa`, the dish's own article, which confirms it as a Peruvian fried rice and part of the Chinese-Peruvian chifa tradition. Quantities and method are this book's own.

Modo de preparo

  1. Beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and fry them as one thin flat omelette. Roll it up and slice it into ribbons.

  2. Get the wok smoking hot. Fry the chicken in half the oil for 4 minutes until browned, then lift it out.

  3. Add the rest of the oil, the ginger, garlic and red pepper, and toss for 60 seconds.

  4. Add the cold rice and press it flat against the wok. Leave it 45 seconds before tossing, and repeat three times.

    💡 Press and leave it. That contact time is what gives fried rice its toasted grains — constant stirring just heats it.

  5. Return the chicken, add the soy sauce round the edge of the wok rather than into the middle, and toss.

  6. Take it off the heat, fold in the omelette ribbons, spring onion and sesame oil, and serve straight away.

💡 Dicas

  • Chaufa comes from the Cantonese chǎofàn — fried rice. The word arrived with the labourers who arrived in the 1850s and stayed.
  • Chifa restaurants outnumber every other kind in Peru. Arroz chaufa is not a foreign dish there — it is a Peruvian one.
  • Prawn, pork and beef versions are all standard, and chaufa de mariscos with mixed seafood is a coastal favourite.
