1 large green plantain or two small ones
3 large garlic cloves
olive oil

1/2 a yellow onion
salt
a pilon or in other words a mortar and pestle is recommended
crispy pork rinds 3-4 pieces ( preferably fresh from a good mexican supermarket)

Directions:

Peel the plantain and cut it into aprox. 1 inch pieces
Fry the plantain pieces until golden, do non let them brown
Take them out of the fryer and let them rest for 1 min
In the pilon place the three gralic cloves, one teaspoon of salt and about 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil and mash them together
When the oil and garlic are mashed add the plantain about 3 to four pieces at a time and continue mashing
Once you basically can't fit more plantain, depending on the size of the mortar, add the pieces of pork rinds and mash them in
If it seems to dry you may add a little more oil to the mix
Mash until you have nice solid lump of plantain
Then remove from the mortar, garnish and enjoy!
