+##### Potatoes Fries
+
+Peel potatoes. To prevent darkening, immerse peeled potatoes in a bowl of cold water until ready to cut. Cut potatoes into ½ inch strips. Return strips to cold water.
+
+Meanwhile chop all your ingredients for your beef stir-fry.
+
+Slice the meat into ¼ inch thick and cut into ½ inch wide strips. In a large bowl, toss the beef with pepper, cinnamon and cumin and 1 Tbs. of soy sauce.
+
+Heat enough oil to cover the base of a large pan or wok and , over medium heat, saute garlic and thai or fresno chile for 2 minutes. Raise the heat to high heat and working in batches, add beef strips and stir fry until browned, about 2 minutes per batch. Season with salt. Transfer the beef along with pan juice , garlic and chile to a bowl. Reserve.
+
+Add a little more oil to the pan or wok if necessary and stir fry onion, until barely soft, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Add a few drops of vinegar and continue stir -frying until it has evaporated, about another minute. The onion should still have some bite. Remove onion from the pan , set aside and repeat procedure with tomato.
+
+Meanwhile in a heavy deep , straight-sided pot , heat oil to 375 F . To prevent splattering, pat potatoes dry. Using a spoon, carefully add potato strips, a few at a time, to hot oil. Fry for 5 to 6 minutes or till crisp and golden brown, turning once.
+
+Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove potatoes from hot oil. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt. Keep potatoes warm in a 300 F oven while frying remaining potatoes and continue the beef stir- fry.
+
+Return beef, onion and tomato to the pan. Add 2 peruvian ajies, 5 Tbs. soy sauce and cook for ½ minute. Add 2 tablespoon of the chopped cilantro and the potato fries and toss gently .Transfer to a warmed platter, garnish with the rest of the cilantro, the reserved aji and serve immediately, accompanied with white rice.
