ready in:
  over 5 hrs

ingredients

1 beef heart

MARINADE

8 cloves garlic, pressed
2 rocoto chilies, stemmed, seeded, minced
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1/2 tablespoon dried oregano
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
2 cups red wine vinegar

SAUCE

1/3 cup dried aji chilies, crushed
1/3 cup warm water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
salt, to taste

directions

Clean the beef heart thoroughly, removing all nerves and fat. Cut into 1" cubes, place in non-reactive bowl, and set aside in refrigerator.

Combine garlic, chilies, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper and 1 1/2 cups vinegar. Pour over meat. Add more vinegar, if necessary, to cover meat completely. Marinate refrigerated for 12-24 hours.

About 1 hour before grilling, remove meat from marinade and thread on skewers. Reserve marinade.

Soak the crushed chilies in the warm water for 30 minutes.

In a food processor, combine chilies and water with oil and salt. Add enough reserved marinade (3/4 cup) to make a thick puree.

Brush skewered meat with sauce and grill over hot coals or under a broiler, turning and basting to cook quickly on all sides. Best cooked medium well, 4-6 minutes on the grill.

Serve with remaining sauce for dipping. Spicy hot.
