Has anyone tried making Pastel de Choclo? I’ve been wanting to give it a shot but am not sure about the ingredients or the cooking time.

Hi Marco,
Making Pastel de Choclo is a rewarding experience! Here are the main ingredients you'll need:

• Ground meat: Usually a mix of beef and chicken.
• Onion: For flavor.
• Boiled eggs: For texture.
• Olives: A nice touch for added taste.
• Corn: Fresh or canned, blended into a paste for the topping.

The cooking time is around 1 hour in the oven after assembling. You can find detailed recipes online or even some video tutorials that can guide you. It’s delicious, so I encourage you to try it out!

Thanks for the details, Admin! I'll definitely try making it this weekend. Any tips on what to serve with it?

You're welcome, Juan!
Pastel de Choclo is often served with a side of salad, particularly a fresh green salad or a simple tomato salad. You might also consider making a pebre salsa to accompany the dish, which adds a burst of flavor. Enjoy your cooking!

Thanks everyone for the great suggestions! I feel much more equipped to explore Chilean cuisine. I will definitely check out the IPTV service you recommended to catch some Chilean shows while I cook!

Thank you all for the lively discussion!
