Fabada Asturiana at Casa Chema

Fabada Asturiania is a classic dish from northern Spain that always satisfied. At Casa Chema, a restaurant located near Oviedo, you’ll find one of the best examples. Let’s start with a cheese plate.

Those are are cheeses local to the area and delicious. Next, let’s enjoy some vegetables.

Finally, here is the blessed Fabada Asturiana, served with the meat separate from the beans. Thus, you can fill your bowl as you like.

I’ve enjoyed this meal at many places. At Casa Chema it was the best I’ve ever had.

Checkout that blood sausage, bacon, beans, and more. All in one dish. When cooked properly, it’s a nearly all-day affair to steep all those elements into an excellent broth with the right flavor. I’ve had this many times in Spain. Always excellent.
