Repe

(Repe lojano)

Repe lojano is a traditional soup made with a combination of green bananas, milk, cilantro, grated cheese, and onions. The soup is simmered over medium-high heat until all the ingredients become soft. When served, repe lojano is usually accompanied by avocado slices, cheese, or hot ají sauce.


If you want the soup a bit thicker, a few small potatoes can be added to the pot. The word repe in the name of the dish refers to the locals' name for green bananas.
