Welcome to the kitchen, today we are preparing cuy.

For this recipe, we need peeled cuy and 3 tablespoons of aliño casero, 1 teaspoon of achiote, and salt to taste.

For the peanut sauce, we need salt to taste, crushed garlic, black pepper, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, 1 teaspoon of achiote, 1 white onion, and 3 sprigs of cilantro, and 2 pounds of potatoes.

Start by opening the neck of the cuy to prepare it better on both sides.

Season the cuy with salt for color, ensuring it is covered evenly.

Apply the aliño casero all over the cuy for flavor.

Place the cuy in a roasting pan and let it rest for about 3 hours; preparing it the day before is better for flavor concentration.

After 3 hours, cover with aluminum foil and place in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F).

While the cuy is cooking, peel the potatoes and place them in a pot to cook, covered.

After more than an hour, turn on the grill to brown the cuy for about 10 minutes.

To make the peanut sauce, chop the white onion and cilantro.

In a skillet, add a little oil, then add the chopped onion and crushed garlic and sauté until fragrant.

Add 2 tablespoons of peanut butter and some water to dissolve it, stirring continuously over medium heat.

If you want a thicker sauce, add more peanut butter or adjust with water for desired consistency.

Season the sauce with black pepper and salt to taste, ensuring it is not too thick as it will thicken more upon cooling.

Finish the sauce by adding chopped cilantro.

Serve the boiled potatoes with the peanut sauce over them and enjoy the dish.
