◆作り方
The night before marinate the chicken breasts with garlic, onion and salt.

In a heavy 4-liter casserole, put the breasts, add water, cover and cook until the chicken is tender.

Transfer the chicken to a platter.

Remove theskin from the chicken and discard.

Cut the chicken breasts into strips.

Cook the yellow potatoes in the casserole with the chicken stock until they startto disintegrate.

Add more chicken stock to taste.

At this point the soup should be thick and fairly smooth.

Add the bunch of scallions, the bunchof cilantro, the sliced potatoes, the guascas, and the corn.

When cooked remove the bunch of cilantro and the bunch of scallions.

Serve the chicken on soup bowls and pour the soup into the bowls.

Pour 3 T. of cream and 1 t. of chopped capers on each bowl.

You definitively have to use guascas if you want to call your soupAjiaco. It's not easy to get them out of Colombia, but they give this soup its characteristic flavor.

 

■焼バナナのグアバテースト■につきましては以下に省略いたします

フライパンにバターをいれ、バナナに焦げ目がつく程度に焼きます

フライパンから取り出し真ん中をナイフで割り、チーズとグアバのゼリー(本物をいれると尚美味しいです☆日本でグアバが手に入るのは9月です。ない場合はマンゴやパパイヤをいれても美味しいですよ☆)

グアバのゼリーは五反田のムンドラティーノで入手できます

をいれオーブンで程よく焼きます☆
