Hey, how are you? I hope you are well. I'm Milo, Spanish tutor at italki, and today we are going to talk about some typical Colombian dishes. These dishes reflect the rich variety of flavors and traditions of our regions. Let's discover them!

Arepa: La arepa es uno de los platos más emblemáticos de Colombia. Hecha a base de maíz, la arepa puede ser acompañada con diferentes ingredientes como queso, carne, huevo o mantequilla. Cada región tiene su versión. Ejemplo: "En Antioquia, la arepa es más gruesa, mientras que en la Costa Caribe es más delgada."

Ajiaco: Este es un caldo típico de Bogotá. Está compuesto por pollo, papas, maíz, guasca (una hierba colombiana) y se sirve con arroz, aguacate y alcaparras. Es un plato reconfortante, ideal para días fríos. Ejemplo: "El ajiaco es un plato tradicional de la capital, Bogotá."

Bandeja Paisa: Es un plato completo y abundante, característico de la región del Valle de Aburrá. Incluye arroz, frijoles, carne molida, chicharrón (panceta frita), arepa, aguacate, huevo frito, y plátano maduro. Ejemplo: "La bandeja paisa es un plato lleno de sabor y energía."

Sancocho: Este plato se sirve en muchas regiones de Colombia y varía dependiendo de los ingredientes. Por lo general, se prepara con carne de res, pollo o pescado, y se acompaña con yuca, plátano, papa y mazorca. Ejemplo: "El sancocho es perfecto para compartir en familia."

Empanadas: Las empanadas colombianas son rellenas de carne, pollo, o incluso queso, y se fríen hasta quedar crujientes. Se sirven con salsa de ají. Ejemplo: "Las empanadas son un excelente aperitivo para cualquier reunión."
