LOL!!! When I first came to the US I thought North American food was pretty bland (no offense to my Canadian friends). That's funny that you should say that.
Anyway, I can teach you how to fry your own platanos fritos, if you want. It soooo easy! You can find them in most supermarkets now. Walmart here where I live sells them for 50 cents each. My mom says it's highway robbery but she's in Southern California where they have easier access to platanos. Do you like them maduros (sweet) or salty? There are so many ways to make them (technique wise) but you really don't need anything but a frying pan and oil.Last edited by damarys; 11-14-2008 at 12:29 PM.

Hmm... I think you're the pathetic one for making those comments about something you didn't lived or experienced('cause us hispanic people did)...
Amm hehe.. I'm sorry to everyone else if I seem agressive, but that really bothered me .. haha... ohhh and I virtually invite you some enchiladas! hahaha <3Tyttö epäkunnossa... -
I love Southern food too! When I went to visit New Orleans (before the Katrina storm) I was so taken by their food. It was very Caribbean and VERY delicious!!! I also have to say, that North American desserts are terrific. I was dissapointed when I first came from the tropics by the limited variety of fruits in the US but... North Americans sure have a sweet tooth! Cheesecake anyone? How about all those cobblers and pies? Ice cream? I can forgive blandness of foods if you follow it up with a fabulous desert!

Bueno migente...con la hambre que me dieron...I had to go look up some food myself....I can't post everything I wanted too! lol...pero les dejo con un Pastelon ahi de Platanos....y un Mofongito de Camarones con un caldo de Pollo a la criolla! These are some of my favorite foods to eat when I go to PR. Un Pastelon ahi con Arroz con gandules y bistec encebollao. Chacho...eso la hace!
O un Mofongito ahi de Camarones o de Churrasco o de Carne frita en el Pilon....Hay no...let me stop! ja ja
Dime cosas dulces para que cuando te las tengas que tragar, no te sepan tan amargas!!! -
citlalli... I LOVE mole! Gracias! And psychedelic Sam, enchiladas are the best! bebestylee, I have no idea what a mofongito is, but I have never had any Puerto Rican food I didn't like. Delicioso.
I'm going to have to go run a couple of extra miles today, just to burn off all this food!!! -
jajaja...bueno Pastelon is like a Lasagne except instead of Pasta you use Platanos.....It's awesome!!!
and Mofongo is Smashed Platanos in a Pilon...you kinda make it into a ball and stuff it with Carne Frita, Churrasco, Camarones.....whatever you want....and it you eat it with Caldo de Pollo o Pescao....So good!Dime cosas dulces para que cuando te las tengas que tragar, no te sepan tan amargas!!! -
In Cuba, we make fufu, which is mashed platanos (not the sweet ones) with milk, garlic and onions and stuff. BUT I bet it would be delicious to stuff them like your mofongo, like papas rellenas. Maybe people in Cuba cook monfongo, but never made it to my kitched! Otra pregunta, what's "churrasco"?
Do you guys eat buñuelos con miel? -
Fufu sounds a lot like Mofongo...minus the milk....
Buñuelos con miel...no but that sounds delicious! I've had Colombian Buñuelos that were off the hook!
Churrasco is like carne asada o a la parilla. Grilled Steak preparao a certain way. En una salsa ahi that's really good!Dime cosas dulces para que cuando te las tengas que tragar, no te sepan tan amargas!!! -
jajaja... cuando leí este mensaje me quedé un poco confundida
, pero tras leer la explicación creo que debo probar la comida boricua a la primer oportunidad
... todo se oye y se ve muuuuuuy rico!
Damarys, ¿son los buñuelos cubanos como los mexicanos? (los mexicanos son delgaditititos...yum yum)“If cats looked like frogs we'd realize what nasty, cruel little bastards they are. Style. That's what people remember.” ― Terry Pratchett. -
Me gustan mucho los buñuelos mexicanos pero no son la misma cosa. La masa es hecha de viandas como malanga, yuca, etc. Hacen la masa y la ponen en la forma de un "ocho" o un "pretzle"... asi:
Luego se embarra con miel! Riquisimo! Y si... la comida Puerto Riqueña es deliciosa tambien.... por lo menos lo que yo he comido. Muy parecida a la comida cubana. -

Jajajajaja... Bebestylee, realmente me hiciste reir con tus palabras para Damarys XD
Y Damarys... gracias por la aclaración“If cats looked like frogs we'd realize what nasty, cruel little bastards they are. Style. That's what people remember.” ― Terry Pratchett. -
Bueno, pues aqui estan los buñuelos mexicanos

-

Ahora que sabemos que hay tantos diferentes tipos the buñuelos,¿que les parece si hablamos de tamales?
Los tamales cubanos so hechos con maiz tierno y puerco.... muy diferents a los tamales mexicanos. Me encantan los tamales guatemaltecos y los nicaraguences tambien. Es interesante como podemos usar palabras familiares, pero con diferente significado. -
Mmmm, all that food sounds delicious! As for tamales, I love the ones from Mexico de frijol con queso y de res. I like those better than the ones from Colombia where I was born. Maybe it's the masa or the leaves they're cooked in or the other ingredients. I'm not too good with the cooking details--I'm more an eater than a cook. But I haven't tried any from other countries. Sounds like I'm missing out!
