I made this on the final evening for my parents in Puerto Rico. Instead of using a green plantain I used a yellow plantain for a much sweeter taste. Also, I used the leftover meat from the pork pinchos recipe from the day before which turned out to be a perfect fit for this.

Ingredients:

2 ripe yellow plantains
1/2 lb cooked pork, ground in a food processor            (use my recipe)
Mango Pineapple Sauce    (use my recipe)

Slice the plantains about a 2 inches thick then fry for about 4 minutes. Remove from heat then place in tostonera (plantain cup maker), press then throw plantain back in the fryer for another 3-5 minutes.  Remove plantains from heat and place on a paper towel. Stuff the plantain cups with the deviled ham and finish with mango pineapple sauce. SERVE!

Enjoy,

Eric
