Recipe of Peruvian carpet

Discover how to prepare a Peruvian carpet, an original recipe that combines the freshness of prawn with a crab stir-fry and a touch of vermouth. This dish, of easy difficulty, is ideal for surprising at a special dinner or enjoying a gourmet bite at home. The Peruvian carpet stands out for its layered presentation: a base of boiled egg, a cream of crab and tomato, and slices of raw prawn that provide texture and marine flavor.

Originating from the Peruvian-Spanish fusion, this recipe uses simple ingredients to create an elegant and nuanced result. The raw prawn, thinly sliced, becomes the protagonist, while the crab stir-fry, with a touch of Peruvian spice and vermouth, adds depth.
