Loma Saltado

Aaron made this on Sunday. It is one of my favorites. It is a Peruvian dish that he learned how to make while in Argentina. As with most of his recipes he doesn't write down quantities but I'll try to remember how much he used.

1 lb beef, sliced thin for stir frying
1 clove garlic, minced
1 onion, sliced
1 tomato, thinly sliced
1 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
French fries
rice

It's really easy. Stir fry the onions, garlic, beef and tomato together until beef is cooked and onions are tender. Add salt and pepper and oregano. Serve with rice on bottom, then French fries and the the beef mixture.
You can use frozen fries or slice up a couple of potatoes for frying or baking. Only make as many fries as you will eat that night, they don't keep well.

We served this with a traditional Argentine salad of lettuce, lots of onions slices and a sliced tomato with a simple oil and vinegar dressing.
