Instructions
Preparing the Mangú
- Peel the plantains and cut into 4 pieces. I like to cut length in half and slice in half, making it 4 pieces.
- Boil the plantains in salted water until they are very tender.
- When tender mash them with a fork until they are smooth. Add cooking water as needed to keep the plantains moist.
- Add oil and mix further.
Preparing the onion garnish
- You can make it in 2 ways.
Way 1
Heat 1/4 cup corn oil in a skillet.
Add onions, stir until they become translucent or reach desired tenderness.
Add vinegar, stir well and you are done!Way 2
Place all ingredients in a small bowl and heat in microwave 3 minutes or until desired tenderness. I suggest you stir a bit every minute.
Sides
- Slice the frying cheese.
Add flour to a paper plate and lightly cover each slice of cheese.
In a skillet, add oil and fry over medium heat until golden.
Keep warm in the oven. - Slice the salami.
In clean skillet, add oil and fry the slices over medium heat until golden.
Keep warm in the oven. - In a clean skillet, add oil, fry the eggs at the very end of the cooking process one at a time.
Serve the mangú, place cheese, salami and eggs around the mangu and pour desired amount of onion garnish over the dish.

Notes
This is the order in which I recommend you make this recipe:
- Heat your oven to "warm" or 180º degrees.
- Start with peeling the plantains and begin to boil over medium/high heat.
- While the plantains cook, slice the salami and the cheese.
- Place eggs in a small bowl, individually.
- Slice the onions and place in bowl. Add the oil and the vinegar. Start heating in microwave.
- At this point the plantains should be about half way cooked.
- Fry the cheese and place in the warm oven until serving.
- Fry the salami and place in the warm oven until serving.
- Mash the plantains, cover and set aside.
- Fry the eggs.
