Vaca Frita - Cuban Fried Shredded Steak in Garlic Onion Sauce.
This recipe for vaca frita (“fried cow”) is a close cousin of Cuba’s famous ropa vieja, stewed shredded beef in tomato sauce. The beef for vaca frita, however, is marinated in lime, garlic and salt, then seared until crispy. The key to achieving the perfect texture is to cook the beef in small batches, so it sautés rather than steams.

Mondongo Stew- Argentinian Dish
The mondongo stew is very juicy and tasteful. It is ideal with stewed corn or with chickpeas. Add onions, fresh tomatoes, potatoes cut into cubes; also add bay leaves, red pepper, chili and pepper, and it is served with a chopped green onion on top. It is a traditional food from Salta. This food can be the main dish and no appetizer is needed.
