Encebollado is a traditional Ecuadorian seafood dish, renowned for its rich flavors and comforting qualities. Originating from coastal regions, it is a hearty soup made with fresh albacore tuna, yuca (cassava), pickled red onions, and a blend of spices including cilantro, cumin, and lemon juice. Often enjoyed as breakfast or a hangover cure, it’s a staple of Ecuador’s vibrant cuisine. Encebollado is packed with protein from the tuna, while the yuca provides energy-boosting carbohydrates. Its onion and cilantro base adds fiber and antioxidants, supporting digestion and heart health. However, some variations may include fried or oily accompaniments like plantain chips or toasted corn, which can increase fat content. Typically served with lime and hot sauce, encebollado strikes a balance between indulgence and nutrition, making it a flavorful and satisfying dish for any meal.
