PICADILLO, CUBAN GROUND BEEF
I lived in Miami for 18 years and fell in love with Cuban food. Picadillo is a traditional Cuban dish and every household does it a little differently. This is how I was taught to make it. Serve it with white rice, sweet plantains, and an avocado salad and you'll think you are in Little Havana!

Steps:
- 1. Saute onion, peppers and garlic in oil until tender
- 2. Add the ground beef and brown, breaking the meat up. Drain the fat if you like but it's not traditional to do so.
- 3. Add tomatoes, tomato paste, cumin, salt and pepper, and vinegar. Simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 20 minutes.
- 4. Add the olives and capers and warm through.
- 5. Serve over white rice
- 6. Note - Many recipes call for a cup of raisins.
