Plantain Taboule Salad

Ingredients
 

  • 1 large plantain, green
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 or 3 tomatoes, (according to size) diced

  • A few leaves of spearmint, chopped (optional) *
  • 4 tablespoon lime or lemon juice
  • 4 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Preparation
 


This recipe is a variation on tabouli - it substitutes the cracked
wheat with green shredded plantain.


Peel and cut plantain into three inch pieces, and boil to
cook until it gets soft and changes color, for 20 or 25
minutes. Drain and let cool just enough until you can
handle it without burning, and shred coarsely
(shredded plantain will faintly resemble macaroni).


While plantain cools, mix the lemon juice with the onion
and leave for 10 minutes (this will "cook" the onion so it
loses some of its metallic bite). Then add olive oil and
salt and pepper to taste. When throughly cooled, mix
with herbs and serve chilled.


* Variation: you can subtitute the spearmint leaves with
some fresh coriander leaves.
