Sudado, or Sudao, is a traditional and popular Colombian dish made with poultry, seafood or meat, and cooked in a rich sauce made with onions, scallions, garlic, tomato, red bell pepper, achiote and other spices. The dish also contains potatoes, and possibly yuca and carrots, depending on the taste and style of the person cooking it.
This Sudado de Huevo is popular in the Quindio department of Colombia and it is usually eaten for breakfast. It is a comforting meatless Colombian dish that is easy to make, tasty, and inexpensive!
Buen provecho!

In Kerala cuisine, egg curries with coconut milk base or tomato base are popular. So it was nice to go through your recipe and see a different version. I hope to see more egg curry dishes from you.

I made this sudado today for lunch and it was very easy to make, filling and very good. I served mine with white rice and a salad on the side.
