Hoy les comparto la preparación de un nutritivo snack; Tostones con crema de berenjena, ideal para merendar o compartir con las visitas de familiares y amigos, se prepara con pocos ingredientes y no requiere de mucho tiempo, para prepararlo es recomendable utilizar el plátano verde o tierno, para obtener un toque crocante al freírlo, les muestro el proceso de elaboración.
INGREDIENTS
Plantain (1)
Eggplant (1)
Garlic (10)
Chili pepper (1)
Salt to taste
Oil (enough for frying)
INGREDIENTES
Plátano (1)
Berenjena (1)
Ajo (10)
Ají (1)
Sal al gusto
Aceite (suficiente para freír)
PROCEDURE
Once the ingredients were organized, the first step was to wash them with plenty of water and vinegar. Since the eggplant takes the longest to cook, I placed it on a griddle and cooked it for 20 minutes over medium heat. I pricked it with a fork on the sides to ensure even cooking, then turned it over and checked if it was cooked through. I removed it from the heat and let it cool before scooping out the pulp.
PROCEDURE
Organizados los ingredientes el primer paso fue lavarlos, con suficiente agua y vinagre, como la berenjena es la que toma más tiempo de cocción, la llevé a la estufa en un budare y dejé cocinar 20 minutos a fuego medio, con un tenedor la pinché por los lados para una cocción uniforme, luego la voltee y verifique si estaba cocida por dentro, retiré del fuego y dejé enfriar para extraer la pulpa.
Then I peeled the plantain, removed the garlic, and deseeded the chili pepper. I sliced the plantain.
Luego quité la concha del plátano, los ajos y retiré las semillas del ají, el plátano lo corté en tajadas o láminas.
With the oil preheated, I placed the plantains in the pan and fried them on both sides.
Con el aceite precalentado llevé los plátanos a la sartén y freí por ambos lados.
I placed them on a board and, using a mallet, crushed them. I added salt, returned them to the pan, and fried them for about 10 seconds to brown them and allow the salt to adhere. I removed them and placed them on a paper towel to absorb the excess oil.
Los coloqué en una tabla y con ayuda del mazo los pisé, agregué sal, los llevé nuevamente a la sartén y freí durante aproximadamente 10 segundos para dorar y adherir la sal, retiré y los puse en una servilleta para extraer el exceso de grasa.
After about 10 minutes, I removed the eggplant pulp with a spoon, then added the chili pepper, garlic, and eggplant pulp to the blender and blended at high speed until I obtained a smooth and thick mixture. This cream does not require water since the eggplant contains enough. I added salt and placed the mixture in a container. With these simple steps, a nutritious snack is ready.
Pasados aproximadamente 10 minutos retiré la pulpa de la berenjena con ayuda de una cucharilla, luego agregué en la licuadora el ají, los ajos, la pulpa de berenjena y licué a velocidad alta, hasta obtener una mezcla homogénea y espesa, esta crema no requiere agua ya que la berenjena contiene, agregué sal y coloqué la mezcla en un envase, con estos sencillos pasos está terminada un nutritivo snack.
I liked the combination of flavors and textures, plus it's easy to prepare and provides vitamins and minerals to the body; bananas are an important source of potassium.
Me gustó la combinación de sabores y texturas, además es sencilo de preparar y aporta vitaminas y minerales al organismo, el plátano es una importante fuente de potasio.
Espero sea de su agrado y se animen a prepararlo.
I hope you like them and are encouraged to prepare them.
