About Bandeja Paisa
Bandeja paisa is a traditional platter associated with Colombia’s Andean region. Erica Dinho’s selected recipe combines Paisa beans, white rice, powdered beef, chicharrones, chorizos, fried eggs and baked ripe plantains.
The meats bring a savoury richness, balanced by sweet ripe plantain and the fresh accompaniments of lime and avocado. Hogao is offered separately as an optional topping for the beans.
The components remain distinct around the rice on a tray or platter. Beans may appear beside the rice or in their own bowl, giving the meal its generous, composed presentation.
