About Arroz moro

Arroz Moro, a staple of Cuban cuisine, is a flavorful rice dish where white rice is cooked together with black beans and their broth, creating its signature dark hue. Seasoned with aromatic ingredients like garlic, onions, green bell peppers, and a blend of spices such as cumin and oregano, this dish embodies the rich, comforting flavors of traditional Cuban cooking. Often accompanied by olive oil or pork fat, it offers hearty depth but can also include additional meat or savory elements. While Arroz Moro is nutrient-rich thanks to the black beans’ supply of fiber, protein, iron, and folate, its calorie and fat content can increase depending on the preparation methods and added ingredients. For a lighter variation, olive oil can replace pork fat, and brown rice may be substituted for added whole-grain benefits. Overall, Arroz Moro is a harmonious combination of taste and nutritional value, enjoyed across many Cuban tables.
