Arroz chaufa also known as Arroz de chaufa is a fried rice dish from Peru. It consists of a mix of fried rice with vegetables, usually including scallions, eggs, and meat, quickly cooked at a high flame, often in a wok with soy sauce and oil. It is an example of a chifa-style dish, derived from Chinese cuisine and interpreted by the community of Chinese immigrants to Peru.
The meats typically used are usually pork, beef, chicken, and shrimp. Dark soy sauce is preferred for use with Peruvian fried rice. One who is specialized in the art of making chaufa is known as a chaufero.
