Arroz chaufa

Arroz chaufa, also known as chaufa, is a fried rice dish from Peru. It is part of the Chinese Peruvian cuisine, which is called chifa. Arroz chaufa consists of a mix of fried rice with vegetables, usually including scallions, eggs, and chicken, quickly cooked at high heat, often in a wok with soy sauce and oil. It comes from the Chinese cuisine due to the influx of Chinese immigrants to Peru at the end of the 19th century. The meats typically used are usually pork, beef, chicken, and shrimp.[citation needed] Dark soy sauce is preferred for use with Peruvian fried rice.[citation needed] A person specialized in the art of making arroz chaufa is known as a chaufero.
