    Boronia (Colombian Mashed Eggplant and Plantain) |mycolombianrecipes.comPin

    Boronía is comprised of mashed eggplant and ripe plantains. This is traditional dish from the Atlantic coast of Colombia and it's  served as a side. I also like to serve it as a dip with pita chips but you can serve it either way, but do serve warm.

    Servings 4

    Ingredients
     

    • 3 large ripe plantains peeled and diced
    • 1 large eggplants peeled and diced
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • Salt
    • Fresh ground pepper
    • 3 tablespoons grated mozzarella cheese

    GUISO

    • 1 cup chopped tomato
    • 2 garlic cloves
    • 3 scallions chopped
    • ½ tablespoon vegetable oil

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 350° F
    • Place the eggplant and plantain in a baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 25 minutes. Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the tomato, onion, garlic, salt and pepper and cook stirring occasionally for 10 minutes. Set aside.
    • Place the eggplant and plantains in a food processor until they are combined, being careful not to over-process. The two ingredients only need to be blended together, not completely pureed.
    • Transfer eggplant and plantain mixture to a bowl. Add the guiso or tomato mixture and mozzarella cheese and mix well. Spoon to a serving bowl.

      please, what is GUISO? I came up with a meet based stew. Is that what you put on the top? It sounds like an incredible dish.

      I must say this was one of the most amazing dips I have ever tried. The flavouring is mild yet complex somehow! I’m going to share on Twitter.

      Swapped the mozz for parmeggiano and added black beans. Delicious dish, really satisfying and health! Already a favorite!
