Salchipapas (a portmanteau of the words "salchicha", sausage; and "papa", potato) is a Latin American fast food dish that consists of thinly sliced pan-fried beef sausages and French fries, mixed together and served with different sauces (typically ketchup and mayonnaise) and chili peppers (or aji). This dish is sometimes served with a savory coleslaw on the side or a fried egg or cheese on the top.

[edit] History

Salchipapas are from Lima,[1][2] the capital of Peru, and over the years has expanded to other places in Peru.[3] In Latin America, the dish's popularity has expanded beyond Peruvian cuisine, and is now also typical of Ecuadorian and Bolivian cuisine.[4][5]

The range of the dish keeps expanding thanks to Bolivians in Argentina and Peruvian restaurants in the United States and Chile.[6] There's a variant know as "choripapas" (made with chorizo instead of sausage) and in Mexico they are known as "salchipulpos".[7]
