Picadillo is Cuban-style hash and a favorite meal of most Cubans. It's ground beef with tomato sauce, green pepper, green olives, capers, petit pois, raisins and of course, plenty of garlic. We like to eat it over rice. Read more It goes great with fried plantains and black beans and rice. Or with fried eggs and rice. Can be used as a filling for the "empanadas", cuban style pastry See less
