Home cooking attempt — Encebollado from scratch

I spent an afternoon making Encebollado from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting choclo corn right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The subtly spiced and herbal result was rewarding once I got it right.

llapingachos potato cakes are a highland staple tied to Andean agricultural tradition. I served it with canelazo hot cinnamon drink as the recipe suggested and the pairing made sense. It took longer than I expected but the outcome was genuinely satisfying. Making Encebollado yourself gives you a new appreciation for what goes into it at a restaurant.
