Cuban Picadillo

This is not Cuban picadillo. I'm Cuban, I grew up with this. You do not put corn, queso fresco, or Tomatillo salsa in this. I get that its supposed to be a fusion food, but don't sell it as Cuban picadillo, because it's not.

It turned out great although I didn't use ground pork, just sliced pork to tiny pieces and I' ve added a few more spices (basil, sweet red pepper, garlic powder, celery, chilli powder), according to my taste. And I've prepared potatoes separately because tomatoe doesn't cooperate well with potatoe.

delicious! will make often

I've not had authentic Cuban Picadillo, but I really enjoyed this version. I did roast the potatoes separately and it turned out great. I will make this again. Ignore Ivis' one star review. I mean why would Ivis even make this if she knew it wasn't authentic?

Very easy dish to prepare and very tasty. Certainly would make this again.

I like this a lot. Very easy to make once the potatoes are cooked through

Definitely needs more spices/flavor than this recipe calls for, but it is great if you make sure to add whatever you have. I used a can of green enchilada sauce instead of tomatillo, and plenty of fresh garlic, some homemade pork bone broth gravy, fresh chopped spinach, herbs, cumin, coriander, and topped with avocado, cilantro, and sour cream. Served over rice. Turned out fantastic!

i used 2 jars of salsa and put eggs on top w/lid to cook. GREAT

pretty good! not to mad about this meal.

So yummy! Will make again!

Family loved it, have made several times now

very tasty! i would make this again

Very simple process with everything cooked in 1 pan - dish was a crowd pleaser! Added a 1/3 of a chopped red pepper near the end for additional flavor.

everyone asked for seconds! i added more spices to the meat, and cut the potatoes smaller so they would cook quicker. i also added peppers. making it again!

delicious! This will definitely be going in the dinner rotation.

very tasty,would make it again, made 4 large portions

fantastic. doing this again soon. super simple. we used caynne chiplote salsa and served with white rice. loved it and full of flavor.

Loved it! The potatoes need to be done differently in my opinion though. They came out too hard. Other than that, the flavor was great and its a simple meal.

I made this last week and the whole family loved it.

I added extra sauce. it was good

Great meal, added red pepper

I don’t know why the author calls this Cuban picadillo because this is nothing close to it. The real recipe calls for onions, sweet bell peppers, garlic Which are pureed and fried in olive oil, then ground beef, tomato paste, Tomato purée, capers, olives, raisins, fried cube potatoes optional, Salt, some additional garlic, onion powder, cumin and oregano powder to taste, dry white cooking wine simmer

I didn’t follow the recipe exactly, used salt and pepper and added a red bell pepper, we thought it was good

amazing! toddlers loved it and ate 2 servings each.

Muy sencillo de preoarar y super delicioso . Plato preferido de mi hija de 9 años .

Added red bell pepper and a seeded Serrano just because. Also used fresh corn, they are 7 for a dollar so I used 3 cobs worth. Definitely either cut the potatoes small or plan for longer cooking. Served with sour cream, cotija, and cilantro. My husband said it was one of the best things he's eaten.

Used a bit extra cilantro and queso fresco amd it was amazing. the husband had 3 servings

Not as flavorful as we expected. could use some seasoning on the pork itself.

used Hatch NM green chili salsa and a few jalapenos to crank up the heat. Wished I would have added a few cloves of garlic. Very tasty!

Used regular salsa and Mexican cheese! still came out good
