This is a task about recipes.
1. Watch the video below about the preparation of a traditional dish from Peru named “Ceviche de pescado peruano.” /Youtube)
2. After having watched the video, think of a dish that is significant for you and share it with your classmates.
3. Then send us a contribution (text, audio or video) saying:
  • the name of the dish
  • where it is from
  • its ingredients
  • how to prepare it

A recipe: Arroz con leche or Rice Pudding.
Commonly one thinks that the rice with milk entered Spain centuries ago, during the Moslem occupation of the Iberian Peninsula. This theory stems from the fact from that there are many traditional mixtures of cinnamon and from rice in the Arabic cultures. This original recipe of rice with milk was exported to South America during the Spanish settling and later it spread all over the world.
My recipe has the next ingredients:
1/2 cup rice short grain, I used Iberia Valencian Rice (arroz perla)
1 1/2 cup water
1 piece Lemon Peel
1 stick Cinnamon
1 Liter Milk – I used a can of Carnation Evaporated milk diluted with 2 1/4 cups of water
1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
g Gound cinnamon
1 box raisins
Method
1. Put in a pot to cook the water, lemon peel and cinnamon stick.
2. Wash the rice and add to the pot and cook until rice is soft and absorbed the water.
3. In a bowl mix the milk, salt and sugar.
4. The rice is added the bowl of mixed milk salt, sugar and the box of raisins.
5. Just let it cook in medium heat until it starts to get thick. Once it thickens stir the rice so it won’t get stuck on the pot.
6. Once you see that it has thicken take of the stove and put in a round cake pan or you can do individual ones for family or guest. Sprinkle some ground cinnamon at your liking.
It is O.K.
