Instructions

Prepare the green plantain.
Peel the green plantains and remove the rinds to avoid the bitter taste. Slice it into small pieces
Puree the plantain.
Add the diced plantain to a blender with the water and blend until smooth.
Cook it.
Place a pot over medium heat and gently pour in the blended green plantains. Stir it with a wooden spoon to prevent it from sticking to the pot.
When you notice lumps forming, press them against the pot to smooth them out. Cook it for about 15 minutes. Cover it with a lid and steam for about 2 minutes.
Serve.
Pour it into a wet glass bowl or greased bowl, so it slides out easily when removing it from the pot. Leave to cool for 3 to 5 minutes.
Transfer it onto a plate and serve it with your favorite soup or stew.
