CLASSIC CUBAN MIDNIGHT (MEDIANOCHE) SANDWICH RECIPE ...



Classic Cuban Midnight (Medianoche) Sandwich Recipe ... image

This is one of the more famous sandwiches straight out of the island of Cuba. This recipe came from my uncle who used to work at a restaurant in Pinar del Rio, Cuba and now works at a Cuban cafeteria here in Miami. This sandwich is best served with fried plantain chips and a cold mamey milkshake!

4 sweet bread rolls
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup prepared mustard
1 pound thinly sliced cooked ham
1 pound thinly sliced fully cooked pork
1 pound sliced Swiss cheese

2 tablespoons butter, melted

SUPER GRILLED CUBAN MIDNIGHT SANDWICH RECIPE - FOOD.COM
"This sandwich is called a 'Media Noche' which translates to 'Midnight.' It is not exactly a "traditional" Cuban sandwich, for those of you fortunate to have had one, but this one makes a wonderful dinner sandwich because it is served hot. A nice side dish is black bean soup or black beans and rice, and plantain chips. COOKS NOTE: Bust out your Foreman Grill, or Panini Press! Please note: this is an adopted recipe and I hope to make it soonest. If you make it before I do, I would appreciate feedback, Thanks ! ZWT REGION: Cuba.

CUBAN SANDWICH | JUST A PINCH RECIPES
There is nothing like the Famous Crispy Cuban Sandwich. It is a hot pressed sandwich. Made with roasted fresh pork roast, ham & cheese It is so good. The other famous counterpart is the Media Noche sandwich, translates to the Midnight Sandwich. In Cuba when the people were out partying or clubbing late at night they would stop off and request a snack sandwhich not as big as the Cuban thus the name Media Noche basically the same as a Cuban sandwich, a Pressed sandwhich but much smaller and made with sweet egg bread very much looks like a hot dog bun; but a real treat and not as filling as the big Cuban Sandwich. Either way you will love these two sandwiches

  • Follow the same procedure for the midnight sandwich. Buy sweet egg bread rolls slice in half and put the same ingredients as in the Cuban sandwich ham, pork roast, cheese and pickles with mustard on each side. Grill in the sandwich Press or on the griddle or the George Foreman table top grill. In the picture above the long sandwich is the Cuban and the darker one is the midnight. Pictured with the sandwiches are plantain chips. I am not good at picture taking but the cuban sandwich is also wide however it does not show how wide it is in the picture. Enjoy

CUBAN SANDWICH VS. MEDIANOCHE SANDWICH, WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
Medianoche Cuban Sandwich. That’s right. Without the bread, even Castro himself would struggle to know if he was eating a Cuban sandwich or a Medianoche sandwich. The bread is the signature ingredient. It shows your sandwich allegiance. Cuban bread is crusty, crispy. It’s the kind that you want to eat when it’s perfectly fresh.
