My fav salad

Ensalada de camarones...I'm sensing a theme here. I LOVE shrimp. So after the rice meal, the next day I made this to go as a side dish for my meal. I MISS YOU MARIA!

Look I'm still using my tostonera but the hinges broke off from pressing so hard. lol.


1st fry (after soaking in the salted water of course):


Ready for some smashing:


my lil cup ready to take a 2nd dip:


This is the trick for crispness:


2nd fry (so healthy isn't it?):


All done, waiting to be filled with the yummy goodness:


And the finished product:


Ingredients:

Plantains
Shrimp
Olives
Olive oil
Roasted red pepper
Onion
Cilantro

Pretty simple. Doesn't necessarily need to be put onto the plantains, it can stand alone as a side dish with any meal, but this is the way Maria and I like it. Man I LOVE food...what shall I make for dinner tonight?...hmmm.........

On another note...it's 70 degrees here today...WHAT'S UP WITH THAT? I am not feeling this weather, I'm in Hawaii wearing jackets and using blankets for the baby. I hate rainy season! I'm very ready for the blazing sun to hit.

See ya tomorrow.
