MOFONGO CUPS CON CAMARONES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the mofongo: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a standard-size 6-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
• Pour 1-2 inches of vegetable oil into a pot. Heat over medium heat until the oil temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
• Peel the plantains and cut into 1-inch pieces. Working in batches, add the plantains to the hot oil and fry for 2 minutes, or until the centers are soft. Remove from the pot and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain while you repeat with the remaining plantains. Let cool for 15 minutes.
• Transfer the plantains to a mortar and pestle (also known as a pilón), and add the ground pork rinds, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mash together until fully incorporated, 5-8 minutes. If needed, remove the plantain mixture from the pilón and mix with your hands.
• Roll the plantain mixture into 6 balls. Place a ball into the center of each prepared muffin cup and press evenly against the bottom and up the sides to make a cup.
• Bake the mofongo cups for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes, then remove from the muffin tin.
• Meanwhile, make the shrimp sauce. Heat the olive oil in a medium pan over medium-low heat. Add the onion, garlic, and red bell pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, sofrito, adobo sauce, paprika, and coriander, and stir until combined and the mixture begins to deepen in color, 1 minute.
• Increase the heat to medium-high heat. Immediately add the white wine and simmer for 20 seconds. Stir in the water and simmer for another 4-6 minutes, until slightly reduced.
• Add the salt and shrimp. Cover and cook until the shrimp turn pink, about 3 minutes.
• Fill the mofongo cups with the warm shrimp and sauce. Garnish with cilantro, then serve.
• Enjoy!
