STUFFED PLANTAINS
My cleaning lady made these for me one day and I thought they were absolutely delicious. This is her version of Nicaraguan sweet and savory stuffed plantains. Having never had them, I don't know how authentic they are, but I know they are delicious.

Steps:
- Cut plantain into 3 pieces, keeping the peel on.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and boil plantain until peel starts to bubble, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool until easily handled. Peel and mash plantain. Separate into 3 equal-sized golf balls. Place each ball into a piece of plastic wrap and form into a 6-inch round. Place 1 1/2 tablespoon Cheddar cheese into each round, fold over, and pinch edges together.
- Heat oil in a medium size skillet on medium-high heat. Pan-fry stuffed plantains until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip plantains and fry for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Make the beef filling: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion and green pepper and sauté until softened and translucent, 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cilantro and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef, breaking up with a spatula to incorporate into the vegetables. Season with the adobo, garlic powder, and black pepper. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink. Drain any excess liquid.
- Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium-low heat, stir in the tomato sauce, and cook until heated through, 2-3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside until ready to use.
- Make the plantains: Trim the ends off of the plantains, then peel.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large, high-walled skillet over medium-low heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). Working in batches if needed, add the plantains and fry, turning every 30 seconds or so, until golden brown on all sides and tender enough to be pierced with a fork, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain until cool enough to handle.
- Transfer the plantains to a cutting board. Cut a slit lengthwise down each plantain, being careful not to cut all the way through. Use 2 forks to gently pull each plantain open. Use a fork, flat-side down, to press the base of the "canoe" to widen. Transfer to a baking dish and season with salt.
- Fill each plantain with ¼-⅓ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, add about ½-¾ cup of the beef filling, then top with ¼-⅓ cup more cheese. Cover the baking dish with foil.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove the foil and broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is brown and bubbly. Garnish with torn cilantro.
- Enjoy!

STUFFED PLANTAIN BOATS
Plantain, also known as cooking banana, is enjoyed in many parts of the world. In West African countries (as well as the Caribbean and certain parts of South America due to African influence), plantain is used both unripe (green) and ripe (yellow/yellowish black). You can find unripe plantain boiled and pounded with cassava to make fufu. When the flesh ripens and turns soft and sweet, it is ideal for roasting or grilling. Growing up in Ghana, I enjoyed fried plantains especially with red red beans, but I have found many other ways to cook and appreciate them since. These plantain boats are baked until tender, then stuffed with a mixture of sauteed vegetables, spices and corned beef--an ingredient my mother loved to use when I was growing up. Enjoy this sweet and savory recipe that will impress a crowd.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Cut off the tips of the plantains, then make a slit along the back of each, cutting through the skin from tip to tip. Remove the plantain skins using your thumb. Lay each plantain on its side and slice off a thin layer on the back (the outer curved area), about 3 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. This will flatten the curved area and help the plantains sit on the cutting board without tipping over. Using a paring knife, make a 1-inch-deep slit along the middle of the front side of each plantain, starting from an inch away from one tip and stopping at an inch away from the other tip. Use your index or pinky finger to carefully widen each slit until you see the little black seeds in the middle of the plantain. Brush the plantains all over with about 1 tablespoon of the oil and sprinkle them with salt. Oil a baking sheet with another tablespoon of oil and add the plantains.
- Bake the plantains for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue to bake until the plantains are yellowish and soft to the touch and the tips, sides and bottoms are caramelized, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool on the baking sheet. Once the plantains cool, they can be easily lifted without breaking.
- To make the stuffing, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the bell pepper and tomato and cook until softened slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the corned beef and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is heated through, about 3 minutes. Mix in the curry, thyme, granulated garlic, bouillon powder and cayenne pepper, if using. Let simmer for 2 minutes. Allow to cool until warm.
- Use a teaspoon to scoop the stuffing into the opening of each plantain. Eat the plantain boat like you would a hot dog.
GRILLED PLANTAIN WITH SPICY BROWN SUGAR GLAZE
Steps:
- Preheat grill. Brush the plantains with the oil and grill until caramelized, about 2 minutes on each side. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, orange juice, honey and cilantro and brush on plantains. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
GRILLED STUFFED PLANTAINS
Plantains are brown when ripe, don't try to use the green or yellow ones for this. Instead of grilling you can also roast these in the oven the entire time instead of just at the end.
