Buen provecho!

Is there a recipe for the dish pictured at the top of the page? Looks like baked plantain stuffed with mozzarella and guava paste. (I think I just answered my own question…)

I recently spent time in South America and was introduced to the plantain – I’m hooked! I fond your site (clean look and such helpful recipes!) I want to try some of these recipes, but first, how do I know that a plantain has reached “ripeness.” Thanks for sharing your expertise!

It was most likely corn flower not regular flower… Sounds similar to the bread part of an empanada recepie i read about earlier.
Adriana says
Were they sweet plantains or green?
Adriana says
This sounds like what you are talking about. I would substitute some mashed garlic for the onion.
