    Papas al Perejil (Steamed Potatoes with Parsley)Pin

    Papas al Perejil is a very simple and a popular side dish in Colombian homes and restaurants. My mom makes this dish at least once every other week to go with her roasted chicken (pollo asado), stuffed meatloaf (albóndigon), or even her roasted pork (cañon de cerdo).

    They were a staple at our house growing up, for sure, and I never tired of them. If you are Colombian, I am sure many of you have had this dish growing up, perhaps you are still preparing it at home. Papas con Perejil is one of those simple dishes that reminds me of my mom's cooking.

    Buen provecho!
