Answer 1

Friend, I havent really had any Cuban food, but here you go:

Classic Black Beans and Rice
Cuban Boliche Roast
Sweet and Hot Pork Stew
Carne Asada
Rabo Encendido(Cuban Oxtail Stew)
Dulce Argentino (aka really yummy caramel roll cake)

Answer 2

In my house, we ate picadillo with white rice at least twice a week. Frijolles ****** & colorado (black beans & red beans). Arroz con pollo is HUGE!!! Carne asada & pollo asado. Ropa Veija & then the next day you use the leftovers to make Baca Frita. And of course everything is served with plantains, either tostones or fried plantains. Tamale en casuela is another of my faves.

Answer 3

Ropa Vieja is my favorite...but something good to go along with it..tostones.
Take green plantains, peel and slice on a bias, about 1 1/2 inches thick. Deep fry in hot oil, about 350 degrees,
until it becomes a light brown color. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Then get a frying pan or anything heavy and smash them flat. They become round...place back into hot oil and fry a second time until deep golden brown. Season with salt as soon as they come out of the oil.

FRIJOLES ****** (BLACK BEANS) CUBAN

1 lb. dried black beans
2 qts. water
2/3 c. olive oil
6 cloves garlic, peeled, finely chopped
2 onions, peeled and finely chopped
6 sweet chili pepper, seeded and finely chopped
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. powdered chicken or ham bouillon
1/4 tsp. ground pepper
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/4 tsp. whole dried oregano, crushed
2 tbsp. sugar
2 bay leaves
2 tbsp. dry wine
1 1/2 tbsp. vinegar
1/2 c. chopped onions

Pick over beans, discarding any shriveled, broken beans and foreign particles. Wash well and soak overnight in sufficient water to cover plus an additional 2 inches.
The next day, drain beans; rinse in fresh running water and drain again. Discard any beans that float to top.

Place in large pot of water. Bring to a rolling boil, then reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer about 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat 2/3 cups olive oil and gently sauté garlic, onions, and chili peppers for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. If you have pork, bacon, salt pork or ham (even leftovers), you can chop it up and sauté it in the oil for added flavor, but this is optional.

Add 1 cup of drained cooked black beans and mash together with the rest of the ingredients in skillet.

Add this mixture to the pot with the salt, pepper, oregano, cumin, sugar, bouillon, and bay leaves.

Cover and simmer 1 hour on medium heat. Add wine and vinegar, cover, and cook over low heat for another 30 minutes. Uncover and cook until sauce thickens as desired pr add more water if required.

Sprinkle with chopped onions and serve.

Notes: 1 cup of dried black beans yields approximately 2 1/2 cups cooked beans. If you're in a hurry, beans may be cooked in a pressure cooker for 20 minutes at 10 lbs. pressure. Check the user guide that came with your pressure cooker for specifics.
