Vegan Soursop mousse

Hey guys!!!☀️

I am so exited to share with you this new recipe of mine. It only contains 3 ingredients, it is very simple to make and such a deliciousness!!!

If you are in the USA I usually find the soursops at the Asian markets there. They sale them hard so you will probably have to wait until they are ripe, or you might get lucky and find a ripe one. Who knows 🤷🏽‍♀️😉. ( Your soursop should be very soft to the touch).

Ingredients

1 small soursop

1 can full fat coconut milk

1 table spoon brown sugar

Directions

Place the coconut milk in the freezer for a couple of hours to separate the water from the fat.

Peel the soursop, take the hart and seeds out, blend until yo have a creamy consistency, pour it out, mix it with the sugar and set it to the side.

Pour out the fat part of the coconut milk, and mix it until you have a fluffy and creamy consistency.

Add the coconut cream to the soursop and mix well, and just like that you have your soursop mousse!!

Transfer the mousse to a piping bag and serve!

Dominican Mangú

What is Mangú?

Mangú is a Dominican traditional side dish served for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Mangú is made up of boiled (either ripe or green) plantains or green bananas.

The plantains are then mashed with butter, margarine or oil . The dish is topped with sautéed red onions.

Queso Frito (fried cheese), fried Dominican “salami”, eggs, and avocado are often added as side dishes. Los tres golpes, literally “the three hits,” is a term meaning mangú with cheese, salami, and eggs.

A little history…

Boiled mashed plantains can be traced back to Africans in the Congo region who were brought to the island during the slave trade. The original word was something akin to “mangusi”.

Folklore has taught the us that this dish was named during the American invasion of 1916 . Since the soldiers had to be fed in the rural areas, the local would give them whatever they had cooked at the moment. On this particular day, the soldiers were served a greenish mash that did not look appetizing. Most of them refused to partake, but the one that was the hungriest had the courage to try it. Surprisingly, he liked the dish and exclaimed “Man, this is good!” as he continued to eat it. According to the story, every soldier decided to eat that dish as they all agreed at how good that was. Since then, the townspeople would present it as Mangú (man, good) to the soldiers to follow.

Vegan recipe Ingredients

6 Green bananas

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoon cold water

For the onions:

1 onion

Juice from 1/2 lime

Salt

1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

With the help of a knife, cut a deep vertical line, cut the ends, and cut in half each banana. This way the peels will come off almost by themselves after boiling.

Boil the bananas in enough water to cover them plus an inch for about 30 minutes or until they are very tender. Add the salt to the water before it breaks the boil. After the first 15 minutes add an extra cup of cold water so the bananas get tender faster.

Cut onion into slices, add the lime juice and set to the side.

At this point the peels have been coming of the bananas. Remove the bananas from the water, use a fork to remove the rest of the peels, and mash them as you would potatoes. Add the olive oil and the cold water to loosen the mixture. ( This is a hot dish but the cold water helps it to stay soft over the hours ).

In nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the onion slices, salt, and olive oil, and cook for 5 minutes, or until tender.

serve and enjoy!!
