P is for... Potatoes
On our way to Pampa Aullagas today we stopped at a town called Huari.
Apart from being famous for making the well-known Bolivian beer Huari,
this town has some charm! We stopped by the market to get some coffee,
tea, breakfast... It was fun to wander around the market and see the
produce they had for sale. Did you know at least 30 to 40 different
varieties of potatoes are widely grown in Bolivia?
Here are some pictures the potatoes we saw! How would you cook them??
