Colombian food is characterized by its blending of European cuisine with aspects of African and indigenous cuisine.
There is no official "national dish," but the arepa and tamal can be considered staples of Colombian cuisine. Other well-known regional dishes include the sancocho, ajiaco, cuchucos, sopa de mondongo, bandeja paisa the lechona Tolimense, cazuela de mariscos and the mote de queso.
Fritanga is a set of dishes that is similar to a barbecue and is eaten throughout the entire country. Fritanga usually includes grilled beef and chicken, pork feet, leg of lamb, ribs, and different types of sausage such as morcilla (blood sausage), chorizo, longaniza, and chunchullo (fried cow intestines) accompanied by mini potatoes and arepas.
Staples of the Colombian diet include tubers such as potatoes, yam, arracacha, and cassava, along with meat such as beef, chicken, pork, or fish. Grains such as corn and rice are widely consumed. The plantain is an important element of the Colombian diet, as are vegetables such as onion, spring onion, garlic, pepper, and tomato. Legumes such as beans, peas, and lentils are eaten very frequently.
A myriad of fruit species grow in Colombia, and many fruits considered "exotic" commonly grow in Colombian beaches and in the countryside. The climate and geography favor a great variety of crops, as well as a great variety of both freshwater and Saltwater Fish.
