Answer 1

Pabellón, arepas, empanadas, cachapas, hallacas, plátanos, churrascos, the normal stuff. Preferrably washed down with a cold Polar.

That's Venezuelan food, anyway.

Sounds good Kevin, what time's dinner ? - fontanero, Sep 28, 2010

Unfortunately, other than the churrasco, those are all time-consuming dishes to cook. Someday soon I'm going to make me some pabellón, though. - KevinB, Sep 28, 2010

Answer 2

Uh, it depends on the familia, I suppose.

Some of my favorites are:

Carne Asada

Arroz Con Pollo

Tapas

Sopa de Ajo Blanco

jamón serrano (popular in Spain)

Pollo con Ajo y Aceite

Pan con Lubina (optional with or without butter)

Answer 3

Basic meal contains Tortillas, frijoles, arroz, ensaladas, etc. and it is optional to include some meat, chicken or pork. I'm talking about some parts in Mexico and some countries en Central America.

Answer 4

nochos refried beans

Answer 5

I always have chilaquiles that I put refried beans on for breakfast when I am in Mexico, but I am not Hispanic, so I am not sure that I should be answering.

Answer 6

Paella valenciana

Fabada asturiana

Pulpo gallego

In this link you see the most popular meal of Spain.

Answer 7

Nothing that exotic, I suppose: fish, meat, vegetables, rice, bread,... What kind of meals? That depends on the menu of the restaurant or how well people cook in a family. I can cook over 50 different dishes, and there are countless ones I can't cook. Again, the better the cook, the more the variety. "Standard dishes" is a synonym of boring food. Maybe what you need is a recipe book instead of a forum.
