    I am a big fan of plantains in any form and I have a serious weakness for ripe plantains (plátanos maduros). Plantains are popular in Colombia and Latin American cuisine, and we have many recipes to make with this delicious ingredient. Today, I want to share 10 of my favorite Ripe Plantain Recipes from My Colombian Recipes.

    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.

        Were they sweet plantains or green?

        This sounds like what you are talking about. I would substitute some mashed garlic for the onion.

      I can't believe I found the recipe for Aborrajados (Ripe Plantain Fritters) on your site!! I had these as a little girl which were made by a lady who stayed with us for a little while. I didn't know what they were called and I tried googling the recipe, but had no success. Then I tried making them by memory, but they weren't what I had hoped for. I longed for that gooey cheesy texture, but to no avail. I came to your site looking for another recipe, and low and behold, there they were. I can't wait to make them!
