Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Be careful with the oven temperature, as the herbs in the mojo sauce can cause the exterior to burn easily. If it burns, gently scrape off the burnt parts before serving.
  • The finished Cuban-style roast pork can be thinly sliced and used to make delicious Cuban sandwiches (Medianoche) by grilling it with cheese and pickles in a sandwich press.
  • During the primary marination, press the pork down completely with a heavy object like a water bottle to ensure the marinade penetrates evenly.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for an exotic meat dish for a special home party or gathering.
  • Those who want to recreate the taste of the original Cuban sandwich seen in movies.
  • Those who want to enjoy a special pork dish with a refreshing citrus aroma and exotic herb fragrance.
