Mofongo is a traditional Puerto Rican dish made from green plantains that are fried, mashed, and mixed with garlic, olive oil, and pork cracklings. This savory delight hails from the Caribbean, blending African, Spanish, and Taino influences into one delicious creation. Often served with a broth or accompanied by seafood, chicken, or vegetables, Mofongo is both hearty and satisfying. While the plantains provide fiber and essential vitamins, the frying process can add extra calories and fat. Enjoy Mofongo in moderation to savor its rich flavors while balancing your diet!
