Dominican Mashed Plantains (known as Mangu)

[@MKMESIAS]

Ice water is the Secret. With all the Dominican friends that I have no one ever told me about the ice water. This is the first video that I see someone using ice water. Your a life saver. Thank you

[@Suexoxo]

Marilyn Mesias lol they wont tell u. Thats why ut was a secret lmao enjoy my love 😘

[@GeeVizion]

Lol, me too I've been trying to figure this out for years. Maldita sea. And the mother of my kids is Dominican. 25 yrs is still not enough time to get that secret out of her. Smh.

[@julianbatista-mccarthy9734]

That's true

[@Suexoxo]

remember... ITS A SECRET 🤗🤗

[@ayanafagan2319]

I’m deaddd😂😂 @ the intro “ if we can drink it we would drink it too” lmaooo

[@djmistameana]

Sopa de platano is really a thing. Try it

[@mrquisqueyano01]

This lady talks in English as if she is talking Dominican Spanish. Same style, delivery, idioms, etc. Made me miss home, god bless.

[@Suexoxo]

jajajajaja well what can i tell you. i am dominican after all. I miss back home too 😩😩😘😘

[@Freeiz4me]

I'm not Dominican and this came out perfect. Followed your instructions to the tee.

[@Schrumplet]

I made this for my bf and he ate ALL of it. We were both shocked that he liked the way it turned out for me since it was my first time making this food. AND, he told me that leftovers don't keep, so not to make extra. I told him these will keep and added cold water again to reheat. It worked! He couldn't believe it, and he ate the leftovers.

[@Snowbunnii-sw8wt]

RVA FOX u an me both my man fell in love an was shocked how good it was im Italian an Romanian N thanks to this queen right here we made our men happy campers!!!!!

[@angelitocarlin]

She is fun, witty and charming. definitely gonna try this Sue.

[@blessed2presscreations795]

Thank you, My daughter and I love this and we have come back to your video to redo it again. African Americans eating Dominican deliciousness!

[@Suexoxo]

Yea i love this... I want everybody to enjoy Dominican or Caribbean food for that matter... Thanks 😘😘

[@dsonyay]

I made this today. I'm not central or south American, or from the islands, but I love plantain. I like green plaintain because it is a better alternative to potatoes for me. With fried eggs, mangu is excellent. My favorite combination. My wife loves it too.. She is from VE and loves plaintain.

[@shakalalakoo]

Oh wow this is great!!! I didnt know that the African Matooke is also enjoyed in the Caribbeans. We cook it in plantain leaves and steam cook it. Great recipe for athletes and bodybuilders

[@Suexoxo]

Waaooo This is why I also love putting our recipes out there, we learn from each others cultures and see that there are so many similarities, we just adapt them differently. I never tried them steamed, but definately will. Thank you for sharing this. xoxo

[@muniebalkyz7376]

I come from Uganda and plantain is our staple food, we eat it with literary everything anytime any where. But our secret to stop it from hardening is never adding salt beef it is fully boiled. You add salt a few minutes before smashing it.

[@leonardpearlman4017]

TWO secrets! Plantains are on sale now, too. Big breakfast tomorrow!

[@dmortiay]

i’m here because of my boyfriend 😂 i’m puerto rican and never had mangu and he’s dominican so that explains why i’m here 😂😂 surprising him with a special breakfast and stumbled here. the way you explained it was so easy and it tasted amazing. thank you!!!

[@imaneagle]

Girl, you made me laugh. Thank you for revealing the big secret 😊. My first time making this & it came out perfect! Thank you again. I’m in love with Mangu now.

[@ramatgan1]

The Green Plantain are roughage. It's what you put into it that adds flavour. Salt, pepper, all purpose seasoning, garlic granules, olive oil, sweet paprika, soy sauce. Then the pickled red onions. Tasty! Watching from Somalia.

[@scarspectacular]

Literally the best mangu recipe out there, so simple yet so effective at keeping it soft and creamy. My husband and I are both Dominican, but he was born there and even he did not know this! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@Suexoxo]

Those are grandmothers secrets lol 😘😘 im glad ya'll like it 😘😘

[@freshdenver18]

[@randymorelify]

Thank you so much for these vids. I'm Dominican but from Baltimore. My mother used to cook all the time but I never stayed home enough to learn this. now I'm about to make some Dominican breakfast!

[@glittergirl2250]

I love making this with yellow plantains and I mash it with tons of butter, cheese, and some water. I love this soooooooo much. Also Dominican cheese is literally the best cheese I’ve ever had, it’s so stinky but it tastes like heaven

[@9114SouthCentralAv]

[@oneuponedown9503]

🔥 i’m lucky to have a Puerto Rican , and Dominican Abuela. That cook amazing food my girlfriend is from Bahamas .So I get good island food as well .

[@Suexoxo]

You are a lucky gal 🤗🤗🥰🥰

[@joyvelez360]

Awesome. Thank you. I love it

[@ThisIsYourOnlyWarning]

Thank you so much for sharing that secret! I have been wondering why you have to use ice water. My friend uses both ice water and the warm water that the plantains were cooked in. She never told me why she used cold water, but she did say that if the cold water makes them too cold for serving, that’s when you go in with some of the hot leftover water from the cooking, and it warms it up enough to eat right away. Thank you so much for making this video! I think a lot of those special tips are lost in translation typically, so you have no idea how much I appreciate this! Off I go to try my first time making mangu, with fried queso and fried salami for my family. I love challenging myself with cooking, so this will be fun lol. I’m also going to do the lightly fried onion slices with vinegar on the side! I’ll let you know how it turns out and if they like it. Thanks again!

[@Suexoxo]

It warms my heart to hear u say this. Please try it and let me know. I didnt make the onions because i didnt have any. But try them. 🤗🤗

[@ThisIsYourOnlyWarning]

Sue Hazlo hey, I made it and everyone loved it! Such a great recipe!

[@andymejia8572]

Amazinggggggg 😋 just had one love it . Great video

[@robertbolin1763]

Plain ol' American of German/Scot descent. I am *so* looking forward to trying this! I'll have to substitute egg beaters egg substitute and scramble them up for my diet, but dang this looks good. I hope I can find a low fat cheese and a turkey based salami to fry up with it.

[@Suexoxo]

Robert Bolin dont add full fat butter then. u can use egg whites and also you can boil the egg instead of frying it. i hope u like it.

[@jacquiegonzalez6929]

Thank you so much. I made it and I love the fact it will not get hard.

[@lala11314]

Looks soooo good

[@empresszaire2305]

Thanks sis, I have plantains about to go bad. Will definitely be trying this.

[@anastasiageramanis5965]

Thank you for explaining so easy!!

[@welthermarmol8752]

Wow I don’t even think my mom knows about the cold water and she was born in Bonao lol I did a mangu the other day and it was dry and my kids didn’t wanna eat and now I tried the cold water thing and it’s like night and day.Muchas gracias

[@thatderpybird7840]

YOU GAVE AWAY THE SECRET NOOOOOOO nice vid :D

[@WomanofZion953]

Thank. I love plantains. I made mined as you instructed

[@kennyreyna7597]

[@Suexoxo]

I hope u liked it.

[@themidnighttoke9965]

It turned out super amazing only thing was I didn't have the cheese or salami lol but it tastes delicious with eggs thank you so much

[@Suexoxo]

+Captin Kozak good you enjoyed it. Thank you so much :)

[@Schrumplet]

great video. thank you. I need to learn to make this for my Dominican boyfriend

[@FashionKillaaaC]

Gracias yo voy hacer lo hoy!!!🥰🤍🤍

[@angelchristopheralvarez5032]

I'm a Puerto Rican East coast transplant In San Diego, CA; even this is a Dominican staple, we boricuas would eat this stuff too;) it's delicious! unfortunately out here on the left coast, I can't find queso tropical to fry, and the supermarket s always look at me weird when I ask and describe it as frying cheese, :(

[@floridaralphy3013]

Angel Christopher Alvarez omg I feel sad I want to send you cheese

[@alr.3137]

Maybe you can find Haloumi cheese, it is similar

Thanks for u receipt...🇪🇨🇱🇷

[@majeedahmuhammad8281]

Excellent video. Thank you, so much.

[@CasmoD1]

Thank you Sugeidy, I tried it and liked it. Didn't mashed the eggs in though, but did the cold water thing and it was just as you said. Thanks again.

Beautiful I can not wait to try it,

[@hadasa45erc]

Lo voy a hacer así,!😋

[@psub151]

That looks good

[@addiewitt3891]

Thank you for that. My mongu did come out stiff and I wanted it with the creamy consistency that you had. Now I know. Ice water.

[@Suexoxo]

When it comes out stiff is because the plantain continues to cook while we prepare and mash it. adding the cold water stops it from cooking. try it and let me know 😘😘

[@soulfullexistence9153]

I love this. Can we use green or yellow/ripe plantains?

[@jean-mariea.browne2077]

I love it

[@LifeWithKasey]

Thank you!! My boyfriend is about to live with me and he’s Dominican so I want to know how to make some of his favorite dishes for when we’re living together!! So thank you very much! Very helpful!

[@Snowbunnii-sw8wt]

Kasey Smith girl there is so much u can do I haven't uploaded any videos yet I plan to once me and my boyfriend settle in our new house pretty soon but if you want you can email me and I can send you some recipes that it would definitely make him very happy buttercup12021985@gmail fyi if u dont already kno when they're dark green you can boil them or you can peel the skin slice them and little wheels an inch thick soak them in salt water put some olive oil or vegetable oil of your choice fry them for a few minutes about 5 minutes and take them out get a cup or a plate use the bottom of it and flat them down and then refry them until they're golden brown take him out for a little bit of salt if you like salt and if you don't make it look a homemade garlic olive oil dip sauce you can just throw garlic powder on top I'm serve them with anything breakfast lunch or dinner in the sweet ones are the same instead of cutting them and cooking them other green you wait for yellow and to be honest they're better when they're like almost black you're more sweeter and easier the cut you can slice them down on an angle and deep fry them as well or you can slice them right in the middle kind of like a hot dog bun fry them for a few minutes stuff it with ground beef and cheese or your meat of choice put a slice of cheese on top and bake it there's so many different ways you can do with these plantains regular bananas that we eat on a daily basis little yellow bananas you can eat with whatever you choose try it out you may like it you'll know the difference when you see it and taste it good luck hmu got soooo many recipes

I love the way you speak and express yourself. Very easy to learn, simple and reassuring meal. Can this be done with sweet plantains? I’m definitely going to try. Thank you! *subscribed*

[@Suexoxo]

Thank you love. it really means a lot to me. You technically can do this with sweet plantains, just know it will be a bit sweeter and do not need as much water and they are already very soft. I do like when they are yellow but not too riped. if they are riped, i just do the caramelized sweet plantains or fried plantains (my favorite with any rice recipe, my mouth waters). I hope this helps. Thank you once again be safe and healthy ok 😘😘
