About Mashed plantains
Mashed Plantains, commonly known as "Mangú" in Dominican cuisine, are a savory dish made by boiling ripe or green plantains until tender and mashing them with butter, oil, or broth for a creamy texture. Originating in the Caribbean and parts of Latin America, this dish is popular for its rich, starchy flavor and versatility as a breakfast or side item. Plantains are a nutrient-rich source of complex carbohydrates, fiber, vitamin C, and potassium, making them beneficial for energy and digestive health. However, the final nutritional profile depends on preparation style; added fats like butter or oil can increase calorie content and affect heart health if consumed excessively. Mashed Plantains are gluten-free and a filling option for diverse diets, offering both flavor and nutritional value when prepared with balance in mind.
