Medianoche (Cuba)

This Cuban sandwich is designed to be consumed at midnight (medianoche) after a night out, but don't let that restrict you - the roast pork, ham and cheese combo is irresistible at any hour. It's very similar to the traditional Cuban sandwich, though the breads are not the same. Medianoches are served on fluffy, soft egg dough breads as opposed to crispier Cuban bread. Nowadays, this sandwich can be found all throughout Cuban communities in the US. Try it in slider form with this delicious recipe.
