- Absolutely! Green beans, mangetout or mushrooms go great with it too.
Lomo Saltado with Roasted Vegetables
Although classic Lomo Saltado is made with chips, this version is for vegetable lovers. Broccoli and leek bring extra fibre and crunch to the dish, while the soy sauce and white wine base (a little French influence) ties the flavours together. A perfect example of how to make a traditional dish healthier without compromising on the taste experience.

Instructions
1
✓
Cut the meat into strips. Slice the leek into rings, and the pepper and onion into strips. Break the broccoli into small florets.
Tip: It is worth breaking the broccoli into very small florets so they fry quickly in the pan without needing parboiling.
2
✓
In one pan, fry the broccoli in a little oil over high heat until it gets a little colour but stays crisp ('al dente'). Set aside.
Tip: Flash frying preserves the vitamins and bright green colour of the broccoli.
3
✓
In the other pan, heat oil until smoking. Fry the meat quickly, then remove. Throw the onion, leek, pepper and crushed garlic into the same pan.
Tip: If you left the meat in, it would soften from the vegetable juices and lose its sear.
4
✓
Once the vegetables have browned, return the meat. Pour in the wine and soy sauce. Let the alcohol evaporate (approx. 1 minute).
Tip: The acidity of the wine dissolves the flavour compounds stuck to the pan, forming a rich sauce.
5
✓
Stir in the fried broccoli and the tomato wedges. Toss together for a minute, then serve.
Tip: This way every element keeps its own texture: meat is tender, vegetables crunchy, tomato juicy.
