Food in Puerto Rico

With influences from the indigenous peoples, European colonisers, African slaves and the U.S.A., Puerto Rico’s cuisine is diverse. One of the most popular dishes to try is “mofongo” – mashed plantain with a huge variety of fillings. The Caribbean favourite of beans with rice is made differently in Puerto Rico by the addition of sofrito tomato sauce, olives, tomatoes, peppers and ham. “Pastelón” is a filling dish of sweet and ripe plantains layered with beef, similar to a lasagna. “Sancocho” is a filling stew with meat, potato and plantain, and tasty seasoned pinto beans make an appearance in many local dishes.
