It’s a stew made with beef, chicken, pork, seafood or meatballs simmered in a flavorful broth with potatoes, yuca, spices, fresh herbs and vegetables like bell pepper, carrots, garlic and onions. There are many variations of this dish in Colombia and different recipes depending on the region and the cook. I think every Colombian family makes a sudado dish at least once a week.
