Puerto Rican Green Plantain Soup - {Sopa De Platanos Verdes

Recipe Ingredients

2		Green plantains - (to 3)
4 tablespoons	60ml	Lard
6 cups	1422ml	Beef stock
		Salt - to taste
		Freshly-ground white pepper - to taste
		Grated parmesan cheese - for garnish

Recipe Instructions

Peel the plantains and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Soak them in cold, salted water for 20 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

In a heavy frying pan, saute the plantains in lard until they are tender, about 15 minutes. The pieces will be gold colored and will brown a little. Drain well on paper towels, then crush with a pestle or mallet until they break into bits.

Heat the beef stock in a large saucepan and add the plantain. Simmer for 15 minutes, adjust seasoning, then ladle into bowls. Garnish with generous handfuls of grated parmesan.
