I'm really into cooking too! I mostly make stove top Cuban food, so some sort of meat marinated in citrus and garlic, rice, beans, and some sort of starchy side dish lie plantains, casava, malanga, etc. I also like to make things up in the moment with whatever is in the fridge, so I cook by taste and every meal comes out differently.
Top seasonings for me:
- garlic
- lime
- cilantro
- garlic
- lime
- bell peppers
- garlic & lime
- spanish onions
- lime & garlic
Actually, I think I mostly make garlic and lime seasoned with meat, starch, and veggies ๐
Ooh I haven't tried much Cuban food. I love plantains, though. Any recipe suggestions?
For sure!
Do you eat meat? If so, pick one of the following:
- Ground beef
- Tilapia
- Chicken quarters (thigh & leg)
I do indeed, but I try to be pretty moderate about it. I would probably prefer chicken quarters, maybe ground beef
Here you go! Let me know how it comes out, and feel free to hit me up on Matrix (see my profile) if you have any questions while making it ๐
Sweet, that looks so good. Thanks!
What sort of things brought you to cooking?
Honestly it was kind of desperation. It was really hard to accommodate my family's dietary restrictions with the way I used to eat, so I started learning how to make some basic dishes. I realized I really enjoyed being in the kitchen, so I spent hours upon hours watching cooking shows, reading cookbooks, and trying new recipes.
I always wanted to learn cooking. Right now i can make scrambled eggs and soups. Soups are easy to make just throw a bunch of vegetables, some stock, and let it simmer.
