Recipe Description

This Classic Vegan Ajiaco offers a tantalizing twist on the traditional Colombian stew, substituting meat with hearty plant-based ingredients to create a comforting and nutritious meal. By incorporating a blend of potatoes, guascas (a unique Colombian herb), corn, and a rich, flavorful broth, this vegan version maintains the soul-warming essence of the original dish. The stew is thickened naturally through the breakdown of the potatoes, resulting in a creamy consistency without the need for dairy. Served with capers and avocado, this dish not only pays homage to its Colombian roots but also provides a satisfying, wholesome experience for those following a plant-based diet. The Classic Vegan Ajiaco is a testament to the versatility of vegan cooking, proving that traditional recipes can be adapted to meet modern dietary preferences while retaining their cultural significance and taste.

Ingredients

  • 3 large potatoes, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 pound small yellow potatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup guascas
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 ears of corn, cut into thirds
  • 2 avocados, for garnish
  • 1/4 cup capers, for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  1. In a large pot, combine the sliced potatoes, yellow potatoes, guascas, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil.
  2. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
  3. Add the corn pieces to the pot and continue to simmer until the corn is cooked through, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  4. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  5. Serve hot, garnished with capers and slices of avocado.
