Very tasty way of using ripe plantains. This is one of my favorite dishes! Plantains need to be yellow and a little tender for this recipe. Plantains that have many dark spots and are very very tender should not be used.
Ingredients:
10 -15 ripe plantains
1 lb ground beef
2 tablespoons sofrito sauce
salt (to taste)
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1 tablespoon sazon goya con culantro y achiote
oregano (to taste)
4 eggs
oil
Directions:
1. Cut plantains in strips (moving in a horizontal direction).
2. In a pan, with heated oil, fry plantains in low heat until done.
3. In another pan, add sofrito, tomato sauce, meat, sazon, and oregano.
4. When plantains are done and after cooling, press plantains with a fork until flat.
5. Grease a baking pan (size up to cook's discretion) and arrange the first layer of plantain strips.
6. Beat eggs and pour half the mix over.
7. When meat is ready, add meat over plantain layer.
8. Add a second layer of plantain strips.
9. Pour remaining beaten eggs.
10. Bake at 350° until egg mixture is no longer watery.
