Peruvian Meat and Rice image

A Peruvian meal that my Japanese mother loved. This is her quick, altered version of the meal. Unfortunately she never measured the ingredients, so I always have to guess and taste-test this at every step. You can substitute ground turkey for pork if desired. I usually end up adding more cumin, garlic, and soy sauce right before serving.

The rice was a bit too dry for my liking. I think I'll add more liquid next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more spices or herbs.
