Mangu Recipe

This mangu recipe is something that I have eaten many times growing up in New England in Restaurants or at Friends and Family Members homes. Mangu is a traditional breakfast from republica dominicana, other wise known as Dominican Republic. In other countries this recipe is also known as fufu de platano.

5 Ingredients
1 large red onion, cut in half, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons white vinegar
4 unripe plantains, peeled
6 tablespoons butter, softened
6 fried eggs

Step
1
In small bowl, mix onion and vinegar. Cover; refrigerate until ready to serve.
2
Cut plantains into 8 pieces. Place plantains in 2-quart saucepan; cover with water. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium. Cook 20 to 25 minutes or until plantains are tender.
3
Using slotted spoon, remove plantain pieces from water. Place in medium bowl with butter; mash plantains, adding water from cooking liquid, until mixture is mashed.
4
For each serving, top about 1 cup mashed plantains with sliced onion; serve with fried egg.
