Prepare the meat: in a saucepan, add the 2 cups of water with the meat, 1 onion and 1 clove of chopped garlic (add salt and pepper to taste).
Cook over medium heat with the lid on for about 35/40 minutes, until the meat is tender.
After this time, remove the meat and let it cool before shredding it with forks. Reserve 1 cup of the meat cooking water.
Prepare the hogao or tomato-based sauce: in a frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat, then add 1 chopped onion and 1 clove of garlic and brown. Stir occasionally until the onion is translucent. Then add the chopped tomato and cook over low heat for 10 minutes.
Add the shredded meat and mix well with the tomato-based sauce, add the cup of broth where the meat was cooked. Season with salt and pepper and add the parsley (to taste).
Cook over low heat for a few minutes.
In a saucepan add 1 cup of water, pork belly, 1 clove of garlic and salt. Cook for 10 minutes. Remove the pork and set aside on a sheet of absorbent paper.
In a pan with enough oil, brown the same slice of pork belly until browned on both sides. Remove and place on absorbent paper to eliminate excess fat.
Cut the plantain into thin slices and fry them in the same pan as the pork belly.
In another pan, brown the chorizo.
Cook the egg until the yolk is to your liking.
Cook the rice. Meanwhile, slice the avocado and reserve the cooked beans in a bowl.
Assemble everything by distributing the portions of each element on a large plate.
Add coriander and a little lime to taste and that’s it! Enjoy this delicious Colombian Bandeja ;-)
