Cook carimañolas — Colombia's crispy fried yuca fritters — in a hands-on class inside a real Bogotá family home. Discover the African-Colombian roots of this iconic street food and the regional cooking secrets of Colombia's Caribbean coast.

Your host Andres studied at Colombia's top culinary university and cooks alongside Doña, the family matriarch who has been making carimañolas for decades.

The class unfolds in 5 hands-on steps:
