Maduros (Sweet Plantains)

Ensalada (Salad)

Soda

Method

Pernil (Roasted Pork)

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a blender, combine garlic, olive oil, oregano, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and bay leaves. Blend until smooth.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Pork

    Make shallow cuts in the pork shoulder and rub the marinade all over the meat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

  3. 3

    Roast the Pork

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the marinated pork in a roasting pan and cover with aluminum foil. Roast for 3-4 hours, removing the foil in the last hour to allow the skin to crisp up. Ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 185°F (85°C).

Arroz y Habichuelas (Rice and Beans)

  1. 4

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion, red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent.

  2. 5

    Cook the Rice

    Add white rice to the pot and stir for 2 minutes. Pour in water, add cumin, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until rice is cooked.

  3. 6

    Add Beans

    Once the rice is cooked, gently fold in the black beans. Heat through for another 5 minutes and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Maduros (Sweet Plantains)

  1. 7

    Slice the Plantains

    Peel the sweet plantains and slice them diagonally into 1-inch thick pieces.

  2. 8

    Fry the Plantains

    In a skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the plantain slices and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Ensalada (Salad)

  1. 9

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine chopped lettuce, diced tomato, and sliced cucumber.

  2. 10

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle olive oil and vinegar over the salad. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine.

Soda

  1. 11

    Serve the Soda

    Chill the cans of soda in the refrigerator, and serve 3 cans with the meal.
