Chanfaina Boliviana
South America — Bolivia
One of Bolivia's most important mixed-organ traditions. Liver, heart, and other organs cooked in a spiced sauce. Especially important in highland and festival cuisine.
Chanfaina traditionally incorporates lung in many Bolivian and Andean preparations. Lung is not a canonical in this dataset — cuts[] maps to liver and heart only.

Cultural context
Part of the broader Iberian-derived chanfaina tradition that spread through Spanish colonial cuisine across Latin America. The Bolivian version is especially associated with festival cooking in Sucre and highland communities. Comparable to Colombian fritanga and Argentine achuras as a multi-organ cultural system.
Preparation
Organs cleaned and sautéed with onion, garlic, ají, cumin, and tomato. Simmered until tender in spiced sauce. Served with potatoes and rice.
