This traditional Cuban dish similar to American hash. The combination of rich beef paired with briny olives and sweet raisins make a wonderful topping to steamed rice or a burrito or taco filling. Simple to prepare, set it up in 15 minutes to eat for dinner after work or school. Our version included black beans for a hearty take on a Latin American classic. Serve alongside some mango slices sprinkled with lime juice and a hint of cayenne pepper to round out the meal. Great any time of year, this dish makes for a terrific make-your-own plate dinner with friends or family.
