Picadillo pie topped with sweet potato from Eat Caribbean: Best of Caribbean Cookery (page 153) by Virginia Burke

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Great flavor! Kind of like a Cuban shepherd's pie. My only quibble is with the way the recipe is written - giving a number of sweet potatoes instead of a volume or weight made it hard to gauge since they can vary so much in size! I cooked about 2 pounds worth to make sure I'd have enough to cover the meat.
