Cuban cuisine is the fusion of Spanish and Caribbean cuisines. Cuban recipes share spices and techniques with Spanish cooking, with a little Caribbean influence in spice and flavor. A traditional Cuban meal would not be served in courses rather all food would be served at the same time. The meal would consist of plantains, black beans and rice, ropa vieja (beef), pork with onions, milk and tropical fruits. Black beans and rice, called "moros y cristianos", and plantains are staples of the Cuban diet. Much of the meat dishes are slow cooked with light sauces.
