Home cooking attempt — Cuban Sandwich from scratch

I spent an afternoon making Cuban Sandwich from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting Mojo marinade right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The savoury and deeply satisfying result was rewarding once I got it right.

Cuban cuisine reflects Spanish, African, and Caribbean indigenous influences. I served it with guarapo sugarcane juice as the recipe suggested and the pairing made sense. It took longer than I expected but the outcome was genuinely satisfying. Making Cuban Sandwich yourself gives you a new appreciation for what goes into it at a restaurant.
