fusion
I wouldn’t actually call this true “fusion” cooking, but the idea is mixing two cuisines, in this case, Italian and Mexican. According to Wikipedia, Fusion cuisine combines elements of various culinary traditions while not fitting specifically into any. The term generally refers to the innovations in many contemporary restaurant cuisines since the 1970s. So, true fusion cooking would do a bit more than just add pepper jack cheese and corn to risotto! No matter, it’s delicious anyway.
