This week I got up craving a good hamburger, but not just any burger, I wanted a burger with different textures and lots flavor. So, I created this Burger with Chorizo, Avocado and Plantain Chips. The Paisa Burger was inspired by the region in which I was born, "Antioquia",Colombia where residents are called "Paisas".

We Colombians love our traditional comfort food and we are always trying to put our Colombian ingredients into International dishes. Colombian fusion food is a new trend in Colombia and around the world. Dishes such as Colombian-Style Pizza and Colombian-Style Hot Dogs are just some of the examples of this trend.

So this time I thought it would be fun to use some of my favorite traditional ingredients from my hometown to top a hamburger: chorizo, avocado, plantain chips, red onions, tomato slices and cabbage slaw. The combination of flavors and textures on this burger is absolutely delicious.

Cooking Tips

Damp your hands with water before shaping the hamburger patties to stop them from sticking to your hands.

You can make the patties in advance and place in the fridge until you are ready to cook them.
