I totally agree with these two. Mangu and boiled plantains? The best! Dominican at heart! :)

you forgot to mentioned that plantains can also be boiled. That's how most of us Dominicans eat them at night as diner. great post!

Another plantain greatness.....jibarito.

Ummm where's the mangu? Incomplete list!

This made me so hungry! 😄
