How to make Tortas Cubanas
The Torta Cubana sandwich has nothing to do with Cuba… it is 100% mexican; you can order this torta in the capital, or the DF, where it is very popular. To say it in simple terms, this is probably the biggest and thickest of all mexican sandwiches you can order! Basically its a sandwich made usually with some carnitas Michoacán pork meat and 1-2 different other types of meat, ham, cheese, avocados and often many other condiments…
