In the fourth episode we’re taking on Cuban food with Ropa Vieja and Tostones! Ropa Vieja is a quintessential Cuban dish of braised flank steak, onions, and peppers. Today we’re plating it up with tostones, double-fried mashed plantain slices! Give it a try and let me know what you think of the Ropa Vieja!
I’ve always loved trying new foods, but felt that most things I ate came from the same ~15 countries. So to push myself to explore more new foods, I’m trying to make a dish from every single country in the world. Join me!
