Paraguay - sopa, bori bori, maté and lots of meat

It's been a little while since we've done this and Paraguay didn't let us down. Heaps of stuff to cook tonight and we started with bori bori - a beef soup with cornmeal and cheese dumplings. The drink of choice in this part of the world is mate - a tea made from a native plant and drunk out of a gourd.

Along with the soup we also made Sopa Paraguay (Paraguay soup) which despite its name is corn bread.

The main course is meat - lots of meat. We attempted an asado (BBQ) with a range of meat on offering - traditionally included in an asado is offal which we didn't completely comply with although we did get some white pudding in a passing acknowledgement of other more gross meat bits.

  1. That looks really good. Especially the soup and corn bread. Well worth the wait I would say.
