👨🍳 Instrukcje
- 1
Peel the green plantains and cut them into large chunks. Boil them in salted water until very tender, about 20-25 minutes. Drain well.
- 2
Mash the boiled plantains with a potato masher or fork until a smooth dough forms. Add salt and vegetable oil, mixing until well combined. If the dough is too dry, add a little more oil.
- 3
For the filling: Heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- 4
Add the minced garlic, cumin, and achiote powder. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- 5
Add the fish pieces to the skillet. Cook, stirring gently, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the chopped cilantro and lime juice. Season with salt to taste. Remove from heat.
- 6
To assemble the bollos: Lay a wilted banana leaf flat. Place a portion of the plantain dough in the center and flatten it into a circle. Place a spoonful of the fish filling in the center of the dough.
- 7
Fold the banana leaf to enclose the dough and filling, creating a neat package. Secure with string or kitchen twine.
- 8
Steam the bollos in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 25-30 minutes, or until the plantain dough is cooked through.

Carefully unwrap the bollos and serve hot.
