Picadillo
Cuban Style Hash

Glenn: Picadillo is Cuban-style hash and a favorite meal of most Cubans.

Raúl: Including me!

Jorge: It's beef, usually ground but sometimes shredded, with tomato, green pepper, green olives or capers and of course, plenty of garlic.

Raúl: I like to eat it over rice. It goes great with fried plantains and black beans and rice.

1 large onion, diced
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced 2 pounds ground beef or ground round

This painting represents the dual culture of Cuban-Americans here symbolized by both the traditional espresso coffee pot -- for those cafe con leches -- and the ubiquitous American drip coffee maker, which is found in offices, work sites, and most American homes.

Tony has sold many of these at art shows around Florida. It is especially popular with Cuban-Americans who live this dual culture. Also a great gift for Cubans married to Americans!
