Tomaticán or tomatican chileno is a traditional stew made with meat, tomatoes, onions and sweet corn. It is a typical dish of the rural areas of Chile, usually prepared with fresh ingredients. Because fresh corn and tomatoes are available during the summer season, tomaticán itself is considered to be a stew that is traditionally made during the hot summer months. The meat can sometimes be omitted, which transforms this summer stew into a colorful vegetarian dish. This thick stew is commonly eaten with bread, but cornbread, quinoa, rice, polenta, or tortillas can also be served on the side. It is traditionally garnished with diced avocado or grated cheese, and it is usually served hot. For many Chileans, tomaticán represents true comfort food.
