Default recipe...from last tuesday

Emma22, check out a more authoritative source in dominicancooking.com .....but as sweetdbt mentions, mangu is easy,tasty & cheap!!

Just last tuesday, I experimented a little with my mangu:

1) Get green meaty platanos
2) cut each in half, then lengthwise again (4 long pieces per platano).
3) boil in water,covered....but this time, I added about 6 whole garlic cloves, some oil, salt, pepper.
4) while the platanos boil, in a separate pan sautee a julienned medium onion, chopped upham, throw some olive oil and brown sugar.
5) take out the platano when its very soft....take a big fork and mash the platano with some of the boiling water and some oil and or butter....
6) Add concoction from sautee and mash again.


I guarantee you will love this!!!

PS almost forgot....don't let the garlic cloves crumble...so you can add them to the mangu and mash them too!
