Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
- Cut off both ends of each plantain, then remove and discard the peels. Place the plantains on the baking sheet and lightly spray with cooking spray. Bake the plantains for 15 minutes, then turn them over and bake until the plantains are lightly golden brown and tender, an additional 15 minutes. Allow to rest at room temperature.
- Meanwhile, clip a deep-frying thermometer onto a large, heavy-bottomed skillet. Heat 1 1/2 inches (about 2 1/2 cups) vegetable oil to 375 degrees F.
- Fry the plantains in batches until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to cool.
- Heat the remaining 1/2 cup vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven or stock pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions, bell pepper and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste, then stir and cook another 2 minutes. Add the ground beef, olives, poblano chile and some salt and cook, breaking up the meat, until the meat is entirely browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the canned tomatoes with the reserved juices, cumin, paprika, garlic powder and some salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Fold in half the Cotija, then stir to melt and set aside.
- Cut a slit in each of the plantains running the long way. Divide the picadillo chili among the plantains. Sprinkle the tops with remaining Cotija. Garnish with the cilantro and serve.

Steps:
- Marinate the Pork Step 1 Using tip of knife, make long, shallow cuts in cross-hatch pattern on top side of skin, taking care not to cut through skin. Season skin with Adobo, transfer to zip-top bag and set aside. Transfer pork to large non-reactive container. Pour Mojo over pork to completely submerge; cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate pork and reserved pork skin at least 4 hours, or up to 48 hours. Stuff and Tie the Pork Step 2 Heat oven to 425°F. Bring pork and skin to room temperature 30 minutes before cooking; discard marinade. Meanwhile, heat oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and translucent. Transfer cooked onion and garlic mixture, plátanos and breadcrumbs to bowl of food processor. Pulse until ingredients are well-combined and come together as smooth dough, about 30 1-second pulses; set aside. Step 3 Using paper towels, pat pork and skin dry. Place pork on work surface so that short side is closest to you. Season pork with Adobo. Spread plantain mixture evenly on pork, leaving 1" boarder all around. Starting with short side, roll pork, jellyroll-style to enclose plantain mixture, creating cylinder shape. Lay skin fatty side-down over pork. Using kitchen twine, firmly tie rolled pork in 1" intervals. Transfer pork, seam side-down to roasting pan. Pour 2 cups water into bottom of pan. Cook the Pork: Step 4 Roast pork 30 minutes. Rotate pan and reduce heat to 375°F. Roast, occasionally turning pan for even browning, until cooked through (temperature will register 160F on quick-read thermometer when inserted in center of pork, touching the stuffing ), about 3 hours, 15 minutes - 3½ hours, adding water in ½ cup measurements if pan becomes dry. Step 5 Transfer pork to cutting board. Remove and discard twine. Remove skin and cut into service pieces. Let pork rest 20-30 minutes. Meanwhile, drain fat from pan drippings. Slice pork and serve with pan juices and crunchy pork skin.

STUFFED PLANTAINS
My cleaning lady made these for me one day and I thought they were absolutely delicious. This is her version of Nicaraguan sweet and savory stuffed plantains. Having never had them, I don't know how authentic they are, but I know they are delicious.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Make the beef filling: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion and green pepper and sauté until softened and translucent, 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cilantro and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef, breaking up with a spatula to incorporate into the vegetables. Season with the adobo, garlic powder, and black pepper. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink. Drain any excess liquid.
- Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium-low heat, stir in the tomato sauce, and cook until heated through, 2-3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside until ready to use.
- Make the plantains: Trim the ends off of the plantains, then peel.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large, high-walled skillet over medium-low heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). Working in batches if needed, add the plantains and fry, turning every 30 seconds or so, until golden brown on all sides and tender enough to be pierced with a fork, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain until cool enough to handle.
- Transfer the plantains to a cutting board. Cut a slit lengthwise down each plantain, being careful not to cut all the way through. Use 2 forks to gently pull each plantain open. Use a fork, flat-side down, to press the base of the "canoe" to widen. Transfer to a baking dish and season with salt.
- Fill each plantain with ¼-⅓ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, add about ½-¾ cup of the beef filling, then top with ¼-⅓ cup more cheese. Cover the baking dish with foil.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove the foil and broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is brown and bubbly. Garnish with torn cilantro.
- Enjoy!
CARIBBEAN STUFFED PORK WITH ORANGE SWEET POTATOES AND PLANTAINS
This was definitely a huge experiment I had no idea how this would turn out or if the flavours would work and it turned out great. I have a Caribbean cook book that we brought in St. Lucia on our honeymoon, I got the sweet potato recipe from this and I have made plantains for years they make a wonderful snack, and keep in an air tight jar for quite long periods of time. The pork was an experiment and my hubby and myself thought it was wonderful. The pork came out so tender and moist, one of the most tender pork recipes I have made.

Steps:
- Cut the pork down the centre making sure not to go all the way through (basically butterflying.) Pound pork with a meat mallet until same thickness all over. Season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In a frying pan melt butter, add onions, cook until soft, add herbs, breadcrumbs, rum, chopped mango and salt and pepper to taste, stir to combines.
- Spoon stuffing down on half of pork remembering to leave enough of an edge so when you fold, the other half over, it will cover the stuffing completely.
- Fold the other half of the pork over and secure with kitchen string at 11/2-2 inch intervals. In a lightly oiled roasting pan, place pork and bake in a preheated oven 180°C for about 1 hr (cooking time may be longer if your meat weight is more and I'm not sure if it will be less if you do 2 smaller loins, just check towards the end of cooking time regularly, to see if it is cooked through).
- Baste meat several times during cooking with reserved juice, I even poured a little over the pork when I started, so the pork juices combined with this made for some great juices I could use for sauce later. (don't pour too much though and make sure it is natural juice and not syrup as it will burn and also forms a glaze on the pork because of the high sugar content).
- Mango Sauce:.
- Drain the mango reserving the juice, blend or process mango until smooth, pour into saucepan, leave on a low heat.
- Heat a little olive oil in a pan, add onion and garlic cook until onion is soft and garlic has just started to brown, add to mango, turn up the heat to medium.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and stir until jam has melted and sugar dissolved, that's it easy peasy sauce is done. This can just be left over a very low heat to keep warm. When the pork is cooked just add the 3 Tablespoon of juices and stir to combine. If sauce is not quite hot enough, turn the heat up at this time and heat for a couple of minutes until hot. Serve over pork.
- Orange-Baked Sweet Potatoes:.
- Peel sweet potatoes and chop into pieces (just like you would regular potatoes that you were going to mash.) Place in a pan cover with water and boil until tender then drain.
- While potatoes are cooking, slice the tops off of 4 oranges and scoop out the flesh be careful not to break the shells. Cut the peel from the tops into thin strips to use as garnish later. Squeeze the juice from the pulp (there will be more juice than you need but I squeeze it all and drink the rest, there is nothing like fresh orange juice.) and grate a teaspoon of rind from the fifth orange.
- Mash the sweet potato until smooth (I use a bar mix). Add butter, cream, sugar, rum, orange juice and cinnamon, whisk to combine or bar mix away whatever is easier (Hint: Bar Mix, Bar Mix) Mix in grated rind and season with salt and pepper.
- Spoon mashed potato mixture into the orange shells. Place on a baking tray and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (perfect already at that temp from pork.) Bake for 15-20 minutes, until you have golden brown top. Garnish with the reserved strips of orange peel and serve.
- Plantain Chips:.
- Peel plantains and thinly slice them into rounds.
- Heat the oil in a deep frying pan and fry plantains until crispy and golden.
- Drain on absorbent paper and season with salt.
- Oh so easy and oh so delicious, just remember you need some for dinner, so don't sneak to many while cooking :).
- To Serve: Arrange pork slices on plate pour sauce over the top. Arrange plantain chips and place orange shell on top of them.
- Bon Appetit.

Steps:
- The day before, rub the adobo powder into the pork all over. Cover and place in the fridge overnight to marinate.
- Preheat the over to 350 degress.
- The objective is to have the whole plantain centred in the roll of pork. If the cut of meat is solid at one end, slice a hole through so that the plantain can be shoved in and lined up in the center of the cut. Roll and tie. Place in a roasting tray and roast, covered loosely with foil, for about an hour.
- Uncover and allow the roast to brown for a further 30-40 minutes, depending on how well done you like your pork. Don't overcook it or the meat will become dry. (A meat thermometer shoulde read 170 degrees when it is done).
- Meanwhile, as the meat is cooking, make the sauce. Place the hot pepper, peppercorns, garlic and salt in a blender and blend the ingredients until it forms a puree. Pour in lime juice, vinegar and oil and blend again.
- Remove pork from teh oven and allow to stand for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with ajili-mojili sauce.

Steps:
- Place vegetable oil in a small pot and heat over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees. Add chopped plantains and fry until golden brown, about 1 minute. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate; set aside.
- Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add longaniza and cook, stirring, until cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Place pork loin on a cutting board. Cut pork loin lengthwise, stopping about 1 inch from the opposite end. Open pork loin like a book and pound using meat mallet until it is 1/3-inch-thick. Transfer pork loin to a baking dish and cover with brine solution. Refrigerate at least 20 minutes or up to 40 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine fried plantains, longaniza, scallions, and cilantro; toss to combine. Add sweet plantain mash and mix thoroughly. Place half of the plantain mixture in the center of a 12-by-12-inch piece of plastic wrap and roll tightly like a cigar; twist ends to enclose.
- Remove pork loin from brine and place on a parchment-paper-lined cutting board with the long side of the pork loin facing you. Unroll filling and place on the edge closest to you; roll pork loin away from you, like a jelly roll. Using kitchen twine, tie pork loin in 1 1/2-inch intervals to retain its shape. Wrap tenderloin with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Coat the bottom of a large ovenproof skillet with olive oil and place over high heat. Unwrap tenderloin and season with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and cook, turning frequently, until well browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and roast for 45 minutes. Add butter, garlic, and oregano to pork loin and continue to roast, basting occasionally, until a thermometer inserted into pork reads 165 degrees, about 2 minutes more.
- Transfer pork loin to a platter and let stand 10 minutes. Remove kitchen twine and cut pork loin crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-thick slices. Serve with and remaining plantain mixture and sour orange gastrique.
