Ajiaco is a popular traditional Cuban stew dish made with a mixture of various root vegetables, such as potatoes, yucca, and malanga, along with shredded meat, typically chicken. The stew is flavored with garlic, bay leaves, cumin, and cilantro, and is slow-cooked to develop a rich and hearty flavor. Ajiaco is often served with rice, and sometimes with other side dishes like fried plantains or avocado slices. It is a staple in Cuban cuisine and is considered one of the country's national dishes, enjoyed for its comfort, simplicity, and flavor.
