Timbuche

Timbuche is a Peruvian soup originating from the Amazon basin. The name of the soup is a Quechua word meaning boiled. Timbuche has many variations, so it can be a simple broth with just a few fish bones, garlic, and herbs, but it can also contain whole fish, shellfish, and a variety of root vegetables. One of the most popular versions is made with onions, garlic, chili peppers, olive oil, potatoes, cilantro, parsley, fish, mussels, and shrimp. The soup can be served without any garnishes or with a drizzle of chili oil on top.
