  I'm Puerto Rican but grew up in Mass where there are lots of dominicans. One of my co-workers growing up used to make and bring me this all the time. (I was 16 at the time) I absolutely loved it and I miss her so much. I have recently moved to colorado and i miss all of these foods. I introduced a lot of these foods to my boyfriend who absolutely loves it as much as I do. Unfortunately in the area I live it is extremely hard to find Green Plantains. When i do i buy so many of them. haha

  any Market Basket in new england will have green plantains. I just moved from Mass to colorado and was sad to see it is extremely difficult to find green plantains in my area now. I found some in walmart a few days ago and that's the last i've seen them.

  My Dominican friend had treated me to his mangu breakfast and I was enchanted. I foudn plantains at a nearby market and I wanted to try making it. I tasted as good as my friend's. Easy recipe.
