Cooking / Culinary
A heading/grouping for a section of the ingredients lists in a Peruvian recipe book. Used in noun form. Other categories/headings sometimes also listed are: guarnición, carnes, marinada, salsa, etc. I've been using sauté as a verb to describe some of the cooking instructions, but not sure what to use for this heading.

sauté:
Yes, I agree that there is no word in pure English (whatever that may be) for "rehogado", but the Gallicism "sauté" is widely used, and has been made into a verb, whence adjective (e.g.,"sautéed potatoes"). The specific construction here is a bit tricky, because it assumes "[hacer un] rehogado [con/de] X, Y, Z". However, that is equivalent to the terse instruction "rehogado: X, Y, Z ". The latter conveys nicely into the imperative, in English.

Comment: "Thanks to all. Decided to use sauté. Some of the other options were good, but carried other connotations that I didn't want."

sweat
This form of cooking, when done over a low heat, is called sweating in English. Usually onions are sweated, along with other ingredients to make a refogado. It means frying gently without allowing them to colour. The result is the 'refogado' (sweated vegetables).
If it is done over a high heat then sauté would be my preferred option.
There is no noun for what this process produces (the refogado) in English, and descriptions in recipes refer to the process, using the verb.
In your context here, an English recipe would probably give the instruction Sweat - then list the ingredients to be sweated.

Soffritto
"Rehogar" is "sweat" in English, i.e., slowly cook, usually onion but other ingredients too, in a little bit of fat, without browning. But I've never seen a noun.
The word "soffritto" is commonly used in cookery to mean just that. The first example comes from Delia Smith:
Brilliant Bertolli!
This Italian company is better known for its olive oil spread, but it’s also just introduced a range of very good pasta sauces. Unlike many on the shelves, they¹re not over-sweet, have a good texture with chunks of ingredients and are based on authentic Italian recipes, with an authentic soffritto base (onions and carrots sweated in oil).
http://www.deliaonline.com/news-and-features/food-and-drink-...
SoffrittoThe Italian version of mirepoix is called soffritto (not to be confused with the Spanish sofrito). According to the American reference work The Joy of Cooking, an Italian soffritto is made with olive oil rather than butter, as in France, and may also contain garlic, shallot, leek, and herbs.[9] From Tuscany in central Italy, restaurateur Benedetta Vitali writes that soffritto means "underfried", describing it as: "a preparation of lightly browned minced vegetables, not a dish by itself".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirepoix_(cuisine)
Soffritto comes from the Italian verb soffriggere, which means to brown or fry slightly. Many Italian recipes begin with a soffritto, a lightly fried mixture of herbs and vegetables.

: As a header maybe "Braising" would be better.

Discussion
However, as we switch to English, at least in this case, that trick does not quite work, reason why it is recommended to revert to the explicit originally intended meaning, that is, the imperative. Incidentally, the colon following "sauté" helps to establish the imperative mood.
