Homemade Cuban Sandwich Bun topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
Sandwiches
- 1 jar of dough for large puff pastry buns with sour milk
- 110 g of thinly sliced ham
- 225 g of grated Swiss cheese
- 1 jar of sliced pickles
- 1 serving Daisy's Moyo Spare Ribs (see recipe below)
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Flour for working with dough
- Egg wash
- Mustard as a dipping sauce
Filling
- 3 pieces of boneless country-style spare ribs
- 1 cup olive oil
- 10 large cloves of fresh garlic, peeled and sliced, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup peeled and very finely chopped onion
- 1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2/3 cup water
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 3/4 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Preparation:
- Remove the dough pieces from the jar, dust them with flour, and roll each one into a 13 cm diameter circle. Dip your fingers in the egg wash and run them along the edge of the bottom layer to help it adhere to the top layer.
Place a heaping tablespoon of sliced pork on the tortilla, leaving a 1-cm border. Top the pork with some grated cheese, pickles, and half the ham. Place another circle on top of the filling, pressing the edges together to form a seam. Dip the end of a fork in flour and press the seam around the circle until it seals. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- In a large cast iron skillet, add about 1.5 cm of oil and heat to about 180°C.
Place 3-4 pies in a cast iron skillet. Fry for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel to absorb excess grease. Serve with mustard.
Country-Style Ribs in Moyo Sauce recipe Daisy Fuentes
For the Moyo saucePlace a skillet over medium-high heat and add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once hot, add the garlic and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Add the citrus juices, 2/3 cup water, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and all the dry ingredients. Bring the mixture to a vigorous boil. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
- For the ribsPreheat oven to 160°C.
Season the ribs with salt and pepper. Pour enough oil into a large, hot skillet to come level with the ribs. Sear the ribs for about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a large, shallow baking dish.
Pour the mojo sauce over the country-style ribs and toss until completely coated. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 3 hours, basting with mojo sauce every hour. Remove the foil 30 minutes before the end of cooking. The meat should be tender. Exit: 3 servings
