Cuban Pork Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pork

   In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the pork shoulder with salt and black pepper. Sear the pork on all sides until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

2. 2

   Add Aromatics

   Add the sliced onions and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onions are caramelized, about 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Season and Cook

   Stir in cumin, oregano, and cook for another minute. Add enough water to cover the pork and bring to a simmer. Cover and let it cook on low heat for 4-5 hours until the pork is tender and easily pulled apart.

4. 4

   Shred the Pork

   Once cooked, remove the pork from the pot and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded pork to the pot to mix with the juices.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   In a serving dish, layer the pulled pork, followed by diced pineapple, sliced jalapeños, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped cilantro. Top with a generous dollop of crème fraîche.
