The bandeja paisa is one of the most emblematic dishes of Colombia, famous for its abundance and variety of flavors, textures, and colors. Originally from the Antioquia region, this traditional recipe combines red beans, rice, beef, chorizo, fried egg, ripe plantain, and avocado, offering a complete and hearty gastronomic experience.
Our easy-to-prepare version includes simple steps so you can enjoy this delicacy at home. We start by soaking the beans overnight and then cook them under pressure with green plantain, giving it a creamy texture and authentic flavor. The beef is seasoned with garlic and salt, and grilled, while the chorizos are cooked in orange juice, adding a citrusy and juicy touch.
White rice, fried eggs, ripe plantain, avocado, and arepa complete the dish, creating a perfect balance of savory, sweet, and fresh flavors. Ideal for family lunches or celebrations, this bandeja paisa is synonymous with generosity and Colombian culinary tradition. Go ahead and prepare it to surprise everyone with a piece of Colombia on your table!
