Tengo hambre..............y deseo : MOFONGO (Makes about 3 medium size balls) Monfongo is made by mashing tostones (twice fried plantains) with garlic, olive oil, and chicarrones or bacon. 3 green plantains 1 tablespoon crushed garlic 1 tablespoon olive oil ½ lb. chicharrón or cooked bacon (crumbled) Vegetable oil for frying First make tostones . . . . Mix together the garlic olive oil and chicharron or bacon. Mash the tostones, a few at a time in the pilon (never use a food processor), adding a little bit of the garlic mixture. You will have to work a few slices at a time. When all done mix all the batches together for even distribution of seasoning. Add salt if needed. This is a side dish that needs to be served warm. Keep forming balls until mixture is all used up. Serve with fried pork meat and fried onions, or with soup, or as a side dish….. yummy!
