Step 2:
Chop a white onion into thin rings or half rings. Sauté them in oil over medium-heat until soft. Ideally you want some of the rings to be a little crispy!
Step 3:
While your onions are sautéing, finely shred the pork so it will be easier to bite into once it’s in the sandwich!
Step 4:
Cut your Cuban bread loaf in half.
Step 5:
Generously butter both halves of the bread.
Step 6:
Add your finely shredded pork to the bread. Make sure you put a good amount of meat on the bread and leave no gaps.
Step 7:
Top the meat with sauteed onions and top the sandwich off with the other half of the bread.
Step 8:
Cut the sandwich into individual sized portions.
Step 9:
Put a decent helping of butter in a pan on medium heat. Toast the sandwich until slightly golden-brown on both sides.
Step 10:
Serve and enjoy!

Paso 2:
Corta una cebolla blanca en ruedas finas o medias finas. Sofríe en aceite a fuego medio hasta que estén suaves. ¡Idealmente, algunas ruedas deben estar un poco crujientes!
Paso 3:
Mientras las cebollas se están sofriendo, desmenuza finamente el cerdo para que sea más fácil de morder una vez que esté en el sándwich.
Paso 4:
Corta tu pan cubano por la mitad.
Paso 5:
Pon una cantidad generosa de mantequilla en ambas mitades del pan.
Paso 6:
Agrega el cerdo desmenuzado al pan. Asegúrate de poner una buena cantidad de carne en el pan y no dejar espacios vacíos.
Paso 7:
Coloca las cebollas sofritas sobre la carne y cubre el sándwich con la otra mitad del pan.
Paso 8:
Corta el sándwich en porciones individuales.
Paso 9:
Pon una buena cantidad de mantequilla en una sartén a fuego medio. Tuesta el sándwich hasta que esté ligeramente dorado por ambos lados.
Paso 10:
¡Sirve y disfruta!

Hola,
My husband is Cuban and came to the US when he was 7. ( I'M Puerto Rican...foods are very similar) He said your grandma is spot on with this recipe. We just made a lechon yesterday and had leftovers. Made your sandwich for lunch today.
Sabroso!!!
