Recipe Description

A delightful and refreshing salad, the Peruvian Vegan Solterito is a quintessential representation of Andean cuisine with a vegan twist. This dish is a cold salad, traditionally prepared with broad beans, tomatoes, onions, olives, rocoto (Peruvian hot pepper), and herbs, all tossed with a vibrant lime dressing. In this vegan variant, the cheese commonly found in traditional recipes is omitted to cater to plant-based diets, yet the salad retains its iconic explosion of fresh flavors and textures. Served as a standalone meal or as a side, this recipe is not only a treat to the palate but also a colorful addition to any table. Its ease of preparation and wholesome ingredients make it a staple for quick, nutritious eating.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked broad beans, cooled
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup pitted and sliced black olives
  • 1 diced rocoto pepper (or substitute with a milder pepper for less heat)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  1. 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the broad beans, tomatoes, red onion, black olives, and rocoto pepper.
  2. 2. Add the chopped cilantro to the mixing bowl.
  3. 3. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  4. 4. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss well to combine.
  5. 5. Let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
