Llapingacho

Llapingachos are typical Ecuadorian potato patties that are often served with a spicy peanut sauce on the side. They consist of cheese and mashed potatoes. The combination of those ingredients is flattened and cooked on a griddle until it develops a golden-brown color.

Llapingachos are traditionally served as a side dish along with avocadoes, salads, fried eggs, pork, and chorizo.
