FOR "RED RED"

FOR PLANTAINS

Instructions
 

  • Combine all the ingredients for the red red in a crockpot. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine, then set the crockpot on high for five hours or low for eight hours.
  • When you're ready to serve the red red, thinly slice the plantains to about 1/8-inch thickness. Heat the butter and olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Sprinkle the plantains with salt and sugar, then add them to the skillet. Sauté until they turn golden brown, which should take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve the red red alongside the plantains and tortillas or pita, as you prefer. Enjoy!
