🧂 Інгредієнти
- 4 large Green plantains(peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces)
- 2 cups Vegetable oil(for frying)
- 6 cloves Garlic cloves(minced)
- 1 cup Pork rinds (chicharrones)(crushed)

👨🍳 Інструкції
- 1
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the plantain pieces in batches until golden brown and tender, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- 2
In a mortar and pestle, combine the minced garlic, crushed pork rinds, and salt. Mash to form a paste.
- 3
Add the fried plantain pieces to the mortar and pestle with the garlic-pork rind mixture. Mash until well combined and the texture resembles chunky mashed potatoes. If the mixture seems too dry, add a tablespoon of olive oil.
- 4
In a separate bowl, toss the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
- 5
In a skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and cooked through.
- 6
To serve, shape the mofongo mixture into mounds using a small bowl or your hands. Place a mound of mofongo on each plate and top with the garlic shrimp. Garnish with fresh parsley.
💡 Професійні поради
- ✓Use green, unripe plantains for the best texture.
- ✓Don't over-mash the plantains; they should retain some texture.
- ✓If you don't have a mortar and pestle, a sturdy bowl and a potato masher or the back of a spoon can be used.
