Cómo hacer Bandeja Paisa

Por qué empezar aquí

Bandeja Paisa is cooked the way Antioquia home tables cooks it — salt judged by hand, fat used generously, and the table set for sharing. This is the home version, written down the way a colombian family cook actually puts it on the table.

Bandeja Paisa is a hearty dish from the Antioquia region of Colombia, known for its generous portions and variety of flavors. It's a staple on home tables, where cooks rely on their instincts to balance salt and fat, creating a meal meant for sharing. This dish is a reflection of everyday Colombian cooking, capturing the essence of family gatherings. The dish combines red beans, ground beef, and crispy chicharrón, paired with sweet plantains and fluffy white rice. It's completed with a creamy avocado, two arepas, and a fried egg, all brought together with a savory hogao sauce. The result is a satisfying blend of textures and tastes, seasoned simply with fine sea salt and black pepper to enhance the natural flavors.
