Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 underripe plantains, peeled and cut into 1-inch slices
vegetable oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
2 to 3 cups beef broth, warmed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Chopped fresh cilantro leaves, if desired

Steps:

  • Heat 1 inch oil in deep 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until oil starts to shimmer (about 350°F). Add plantain slices; cook until golden brown and tender. Remove from oil.
  • Flatten the plantains using the bottom of a flat-bottomed glass bottle or a tostonera, if you have one. Return flattened plantains to skillet; cook for 30 seconds on each side or until slightly crisp. Remove from skillet; place in large bowl. Cool slightly.
  • Place plaintains, garlic and 1 cup of the broth in food processor. Process until mixture has the consistency of chunky mashed potatoes, adding broth 1/4 cup at a time. Add salt and pepper; process until mixed.
  • Spoon into serving bowl; garnish with cilantro. Serve immediately.

This mofongo recipe is a keeper! It's so easy to make and the flavor is incredible. I love the combination of the sweet plantains and the savory garlic sauce. I've made it several times already and it's always a hit with my family and friends.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my mofongo turned out a complete disaster. The plantains were mushy and the garlic sauce was watery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This mofongo was absolutely delicious! The plantains were perfectly cooked and the garlic sauce was flavorful and creamy. I served it with a side of rice and beans, and it was the perfect meal. I will definitely be making this again.

This mofongo was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. The plantains were a little dry and the garlic sauce was a bit too oily. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my mofongo turned out too dry. I think I might have overcooked the plantains. Next time I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time.
