Chop the onion and garlic 4 sec/speed 5 and sauté with oil 5 min/120°C/speed 1.
Add the yellow chili and the beans. Blend 15 sec/speed 6 into a coarse purée.
Mix with the rice 30 sec/reverse/spoon speed. Shape the tacu tacu and brown them in a separate pan.
For the saltado: sear the seasoned tenderloin in a very hot pan 2 min, remove.
Sauté the onion and tomato wedges 2 min, add the tenderloin, soy sauce and a splash of vinegar. Sauté 1 min.
Serve the tacu tacu topped with the lomo saltado and its juices.

Tips

The secret to tacu tacu is browning it well so it's crispy on the outside.
The saltado must be cooked over high heat and quickly so the onion stays al dente.
