Sopa paraguaya

Sopa paraguaya is a delicious traditional cheesy cornbread from Paraguay, which is prepared with corn flour, cheese, milk and onions. This is a very popular and common food in Paraguay.

Sopa is similar to another corn based Paraguayan typical pie dishes, chipahuazu or chipaguazu, except that the latter is made with fresh corn. The consistency is a little bit more like a cheesy soufflé and less like a savory cornbread. This dish  can be served as an appetizer or accompanied with red or white meat. It is also often served with soups such as puchero paraguayo, a traditional beef soup.
