Tostones med svarta bönor & mojo

Så gör du

1. Peel the green plantains and cut into thick rounds. Fry for about 2 minutes per side until softened and lightly golden.
2. Flatten each round with a tostonera or the bottom of a glass. Do not press so hard that the plantain breaks apart.
3. Return the flattened pieces to the hot oil and fry until crisp and golden on both sides. Drain and salt immediately.
4. Mix citrus juice, garlic and salt for the mojo. Taste it; it should be sharp enough to balance the fried plantain.
5. Serve the tostones hot with warm black beans and the mojo on the side so the plantain stays crisp.
