Mangu

Mangú is Dominican Republic's national breakfast. This traditional Dominican dish can also be served for lunch or dinner. Mangú is made up of boiled green plantains with or without peel on. When cooked through and soft the peel is removed. Plantains are then mashed with a fork and some water in which they were boiled in. The goal is to mash the plantains until it becomes smooth with no lumps. The dish is topped with sautéed red onions that have been cooked with vinegar and oil. Los tres golpes is the slang name given by Dominicans consisting of fried Dominican-style salami, fried cheese, and fried eggs served alongside mangú. The salami and cheese can be coated in flour before frying for a more crispy texture.
