'''Guatita''' (''[little] gut'' or ''[little] belly'', from {{lang-es|Guata}}; "Gut/Belly"), or '''guatita criolla''', is a popular dish in [[Ecuador]], where it is considered a national dish, and in [[Chile]]. It is essentially a [[stew]] whose main ingredient is pieces of [[tripe]] (cow stomach), known locally as "guatitas". The tripe is cleaned several times in a lemon-juice brine, after which it is cooked for a long time until the meat is tender. Then it is allowed to cool and finely chopped. There are various vegetarian versions of the dish in which [[Wheat gluten (food)|wheat gluten]] is substituted for tripe. Other variations use strong-tasting fish such as [[tuna]]. The traditional Ecuadorian recipe is served hot and accompanied by potatoes and a peanut sauce. |
