Tostones; this the basic receipt of the use of the Plantain. It is a smash and fried plantain. Once is fried you can salted, or mixed with a garlic oil. Plantain look like a banana, but it is not. As I mentioned in one of my other post; Puerto Rico culinary dishes are influence by Tainos, Spain., and Africa. As Google on internet, Plantain arrived in Puerto Rico by the Africans.
You can eat Tostones, by itself, or you can filled with shrimps, counch, octopus. Enjoy.
@ Nosaint2 are delicious! … here in Cartagena, Colombia, we call them patacones and they are introduced into water where there is diluted garlic, salt and sometimes lemon; We frequently accompany them with cheese and they are part of the Cartagena breakfast.
@Nosaint2_Rafael_Fe this type of my favorite snack , I love the taste and texture . Love your podt
@Nosaint2_Rafael_Fe , these looks delicious…bananas are widely available in Indonesia
Cuando el plátano verde está empezando a madurar, pero aún sigue amarillo-verdoso; nosotros le llamamos en Venezuela: “tostón pintón”, es diferente, no tan crocante como el tradicional tostón y algo dulce sin pasarse de la raya. Si el plátano está fileteado finamente y luego frito, le llamamos platanitos. Si el tostón es de tamaño grande, le llamamos patacón pisao y le ponemos cosas encima como queso, tomate en rodajas y alguna carne desmechada. Gracias por mostrarnos este platillo tan caribeño @Nosaint2_Rafael_Fe Rafael
