A classic Puerto Rican dish made from fried green plantains mashed with garlic, olive oil, and pork cracklings, here stuffed with grilled mahi-mahi fish.
Mofongo is a dish from Puerto Rico, primarily made from green plantains. These plantains are prepared by frying, boiling, or roasting, then mashed with ingredients such as salt, garlic, pork, broth, and cooking oil, traditionally in a wooden pilón. The goal is to form a tight ball of mashed plantains, often containing pork cracklings or bacon, which is designed to absorb accompanying flavors. It is traditionally served with fried meat and chicken broth soup, with variations including other fillings like vegetables, chicken, or seafood.
