I've been frying up plantains every single night this week.

Pudding? Pie? Chips?

Mangu

>Arañitas - grated green plantain shaped into balls and fried till very crispy
>Mangú - mashed plantain often mixed with onion
>Pastelón - basically lasagna but using layers of sweet plantain instead of pasta, has cheese but no red sauce
>Mofongo - mashed green plantain mixed with garlic and sometimes pork cracklings, often shaped into a bowl form to hold a stuffing made out of chopped steak or just to contain a seafood stew
>Amarillos - mature plantain fried and allowed to caramelize, often mixed in with rice but also used as a dessert with sweets
>Mariquita - mature plantain thinly cut lengthwise and fried, very much like a long plantain chip
>Tostones (stuffed) - before frying the green plantain the second time, use a pestle or anything else to make the tostón concave, so that it can hold a filling. Ceviche, shredded chicken, put whatever you like in there.

Pardon, Mariquitas require green plantain instead of mature.

Btw, I just happened to look at that pic.


None of those are green.

The greenish one on the left is already maturing, so it's no good for Mofongo and such.

Make some good chimmichurri to go with those tostones

Those are bananas.
