Roasted, marinated pork is a traditional Cuban dish. This marinade is particularly good with pork, but can also be used on chicken, lamb and goat.

Ingredients

• 20 cloves garlic
• 2 teaspoons salt
• The juice of two oranges, one lemon and one lime, mixed together
• 1 cup diced onion
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 1.5 cups Spanish olive oil

Method

1. Mash garlic and salt into a paste, using a mortar and pestle.
2. Stir in fruit juices, onion, and oregano.
3. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.
4. In a saucepan, heat olive oil to the boiling point and remove from the heat.
5. Whisk in the garlic-orange juice mixture until well blended. This makes approximately two pints of marinade.
6. Marinate meat for four hours.
7. Baste meat with mojo during cooking.
