🇩🇴 Dominican Republic recipe
Mangú
Mangú is the soul of Dominican breakfast, known as 'Los Tres Golpes' (The Three Hits) when served with fried cheese, fried salami, and eggs. This simple yet deeply satisfying dish of boiled and mashed green plantains with butter and the cooking water creates a silky, comforting base. Topped with pickled red onions sautéed in vinegar, mangú has been fueling Dominican mornings for generations.
