    What To Serve With Puerto Rican Carne Bif?

    Puerto Rican carne bif is inexpensive, uses common ingredients in Latin households, and can be made in no time. We don’t have to sacrifice flavor when trying to save money! I like to serve my carne bif with platanos maduros (fried sweet plantains), but it’s also commonly served with a big pile of french fries in Puerto Rico. A side of white rice and some avocado rounds out this delicious, comforting bowl of nostalgia.
