Phisara de Quinua (Quinoa Physara)
Quinoa is a grain native to the high plateau area of the Andes mountains and has a high nutritional value. In Bolivia, this “golden grain” is used to prepare more than thirty exquisite dishes, one of them being Phisara, which is served mainly in La Paz, Oruro, and Potosi. It consists of quinoa lightly ground in a batán (grinding stone), toasted and then cooked in a pot.
It is served with roasted beef, llama pork rinds, charque or cheese, and garnished with beans, cooked peas, and green onions. This highland recipe is very simple and super nutritious, and can be prepared in a very short time.
