Pandebonos, another staple of Colombian cuisine, and just like buñuelos, you will find them being sold and made everywhere in Colombia which is probably the reason why most of the recipe requests I get are for this doughy piece of heaven
In the previous post we made some delicious Colombian raspados (snow cones or shaved ice) which was one of the recipes that had been requested several times since last year
Colombian beans and chicharrones (fried pork belly). Colombians are well known for mixing and adding all kinds of toppings to their burgers and hot dogs, which I can imagine it may sound a bit odd, but it really takes them to a whole new level
The best bread to do that with is definitely Colombian soft bread, which isn't really a Colombian recipe, but it's so famous in Colombia that we claim it as our own
Everyone had to order it, except for my dad because he had to be different and would always order some pineapple soup followed by some weird beef dish, and the reason I say it was weird is because I was a kid and it looked too "grown up" for me
Chuleta valluna or Colombian pork Milanese is one of those classic recipes that is made all over Colombia and I was convinced that I had never had it, not in Colombia and not here in the US
And something that always caught my attention was their famous Colombian hot dogs because they're so different to the regular hot dogs we eat here in the US
You can use the beef stock to make soups or sancochos. Colombian powdered beef, or ground beef, is another side dish that is frequently served in most Colombian homes
Last year I shared with you the Colombian tamales recipe that we make most at home during the holidays and many of you requested the recipe to make another version called "tamales tolimenses" (from the department of Tolima), which are also very popular in Colombia

And just like with empanadas, tamales, soups and other Colombian food, Colombian hot sauces are made in different ways depending on the place and the person who makes them
And this dish can also be served with fried green plantain chips and slices of boiled egg. I had never heard of arroz atollado (which like many other Colombian recipes doesn't have a direct translation, so the closest would be something like "Colombian sticky rice" or "Colombian risotto") until I saw it for the first time years ago in one of the Colombian cookbooks that I have at home
