Poutine

Poutine (Quebec French: [put͡sɪn] ) is a dish of french fries and cheese curds topped with a brown gravy. It emerged in Quebec, in the late 1950s in the Centre-du-Québec region, though its exact origins are uncertain and there are several competing claims regarding its invention. For many years, it was used by some to mock Quebec society. Poutine later became celebrated as a symbol of Québécois culture and the province of Quebec. It has long been associated with Quebec cuisine, and its rise in prominence has led to its growing popularity throughout the rest of Canada and in the northern United States.

Empanada

An empanada is a type of baked or fried turnover consisting of pastry and filling, common in Spanish, other Southern European, Latin American, and Iberian-influenced cultures around the world. The name comes from the Spanish empanar (to bread, i.e., to coat with bread), and translates as 'breaded', that is, wrapped or coated in bread. They are made by folding dough over a filling, which may consist of meat, cheese, tomato, corn, or other ingredients, and then cooking the resulting turnover, either by baking or frying. Argentine empanadas are often served during parties and festivals as a starter or main course. Shops specialize in freshly made empanadas, with many flavors and fillings. Every region of Argentina has its own characteristic variant. (Source: Wikipedia.org, CC BY-SA)

Another theory is that the rice and beans and/or the grouping of dishes are married, since they are always together. (Source: Wikipedia.org, CC BY-SA)

Zagorski štrukli

Zagorski štrukli or štruklji (pronounced [zǎːgorski ʃtrǔkli]) is a popular traditional Croatian dish served in households across Hrvatsko Zagorje and Zagreb regions in the north of the country, composed of dough and various types of filling which can be either boiled or baked. It is closely related to štruklji, a traditional Slovene dish. The preparations are the same for both boiled and baked types of štrukli. Pastry is rolled out flat and very thin, to cover the table top. A mixture of cottage cheese with eggs, sour cream and salt is spread thinly over the pastry. Then the pastry is rolled lengthwise from both sides into two joined rolls, and finally cut into 10–20 cm long pieces. For baked štrukli, the pieces are then placed into a baking tray, generously covered in clotted cream, and baked for roughly 45 minutes, until slightly brown on top.

Ropa vieja

Ropa vieja (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈro.pa ˈβje.xa]; 'old clothes') is a dish with regional variations in Latin America, the Philippines, and Spain. It normally includes some form of stewed beef and tomatoes with a sofrito base. Originating in Spain, it is known today as one of the national dishes of Cuba. The name ropa vieja probably originates from the fact that it was often prepared using food left over from other meals. The dish's origins appear to have first arisen among the Sephardic Jews of the Iberian Peninsula, as a slow-cooked stew that was prepared to be eaten over the course of a traditionally observed Shabbat, a kind of cholent called 'handrajos' (similar to the Spanish word 'andrajos'). Eventually this dish spread to North Africa and to the Canary Islands of Spain. The dish is believed to have been brought to the Americas by immigrants from the Canary Islands and was first reported to have been cooked in Cuba in 1857, but today is well known as a Cuban national dish.

Souvla

Souvla (Greek: σούβλα) is a popular dish from Cyprus. It consists of large pieces of meat cooked on a long skewer over a charcoal barbecue. It differs from the popular Greek dish souvlaki, in that meat cuts are much larger and slow cooked for a much longer period at a greater distance from the hot charcoal. Traditional souvla is made from the neck and shoulder of lamb, pork and chicken. The meat is cut on the bone into chunks about the size of a medium onion (optional). The meat must be put on a charcoal brazier, called 'foukou' in Cypriot Greek (Greek: φουκού), then its weight is evenly distributed on the rotisserie, so it cooks evenly on the foukou. The meat is put as far as possible from the charcoal at first. After it is sizzling, it is lowered down to the charcoal so that the skin on the meat goes brown. The process takes between 90 minutes and 3 hours depending on the type of meat, size and heat of fire. Salt, aromatics (such as oregano), oil, and wine are sprinkled or brushed on the meat once the cooking process is well under way. That way the meat stays juicy and does not brown too quickly.

Callaloo

Callaloo (many spelling variants, such as kallaloo, calaloo, calalloo, calaloux or callalloo; Jamaican Patois: kalalu) is a popular Caribbean vegetable dish. There are many variants across the Caribbean, depending on the availability of local vegetables.

Since the leaf vegetable used in some regions may be locally called 'callaloo', 'callaloo bush' or 'dasheen leaves', some confusion can arise among the vegetables and with the dish itself. This, as is the case with many other Caribbean dishes, is a remnant of West African cuisine. (Source: Wikipedia.org, CC BY-SA)

For this reason, it is often served by restaurants early on Saturday and Sunday mornings. (Source: Wikipedia.org, CC BY-SA)

Crêpe

A crêpe or crepe (/kreɪp/ or /krɛp/, French: [kʁɛp] , Quebec French: [kʁaɪ̯p] ) is a very thin type of pancake. Crêpes are usually one of two varieties: sweet crêpes (crêpes sucrées) or savoury galettes (crêpes salées).

In France, crêpes are traditionally served on the Christian holiday Candlemas (La Chandeleur), on February 2. In 472, Roman Pope Gelasius I offered Crispus (later said Crêpes) to French pilgrims that were visiting Rome for the Chandeleur. They brought the dish back to France, and the day also became known as 'Le Jour des Crêpes' ('The Day of the Crêpes'). The day is also celebrated by many as the day that marks the transition from winter to spring (similar to the North American tradition of Groundhog Day), with the golden color and circular shape of crêpes representing the sun and the circle of life.

Pot-au-feu

Pot-au-feu (/ˌpɒtoʊˈfɜːr/; French: [pɔt‿o fø] ; 'pot on the fire') is a French dish of slowly boiled meat and vegetables, usually served as two courses: first the broth (bouillon) and then the meat (bouilli) and vegetables. The dish is familiar throughout France, and has many regional variations. The best-known have beef as the main meat, but pork, ham, chicken and sausage are also used. The principal ingredient in most versions of pot-au-feu is beef. Many recipes specify more than one cut of beef to give both the broth and the cooked meat the required flavour and consistency. Elizabeth David writes that shin, because of its gelatinous properties, is good for the bouillon but produces a mediocre boulli, whereas a cut such as silverside cooks well for the boulli. For a large pot-au-feu it is practicable to use both those cuts or a mixture of others. Paul Bocuse calls for six different cuts: blade, brisket, entrecôte, oxtail, rib and shin. Some recipes add a marrow bone, to give marrow to spread on the bread served with the broth. Some recipes add ox liver to improve the clarity of the broth. (Source: Wikipedia.org, CC BY-SA)

Poulet nyembwe

Poulet nyembwe is a savory chicken dish popular in Central Africa and considered the national dish of Angola. The dish itself is made by combining chicken, spices and palm butter to create a stew-like consistency. A number of local or regional variations exist across the Congo and Central Africa; the dish is also known outside the continent. Poulet moambe (French for 'chicken in palm butter sauce') is prepared by cooking chicken in moambe (palm butter) and spinach, then seasoned with spices like peri-peri or red pepper. It is typically served with sweet potatoes, brown onions, hard-boiled eggs and a sauce made from crushed palm nuts. Moambe chicken can also be accompanied by rice or manioc (cassava) paste. The chicken can be substituted with duck or fish. (Source: Wikipedia.org, CC BY-SA)
