Boniato Mash With Mojo Recipes

Steps:

• Roast potatoes in a preheated 375-degree oven. While roasting potatoes, sweat onion in olive oil until translucent. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Deglaze pan with white wine and reduce until almost all liquid is gone. Add orange juice and reduce by 2/3. Fold in herbs and season with salt and pepper. When potatoes are done, pour hot mojo over potatoes and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In blender add all ingredients, except mint, and blend until smooth. Pour into a collins or hurricane glass and garnish with fresh mint.

Steps:

• Put black beans, pork ribs, water, rum, garlic head halves, onion, salt, bay leaves, oregano, cumin, and crushed red pepper in a slow cooker; cover and cook on LOW until the beans are tender and the meat is falling off the rib bones, about 8 hours.
• Remove the ribs from the soup. Using a handheld immersion blender, partially puree the soup until it is creamy but still has some texture from whole beans. (Or puree half the soup in a blender and stir it back into the slow cooker.) Pull the meat from the rib bones, shredding it into large pieces, and stir it into the soup.
• Mojo: Put the garlic and olive oil in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on HIGH until the garlic is golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the lime juice, cilantro, and salt and set aside until ready to serve.
• Ladle the soup into warmed bowls and drizzle each serving with some mojo. Pass the remaining mojo.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat.
• Season the lobsters with salt and pepper. Place both the lobsters and the marinated yellowtail snapper on the grill. Grill over medium heat until the lobsters are white and begin to separate from the shell and the snapper is opaque and no longer mushy (should be soft and slightly firm to the touch).
• After removing from the grill, divide each yellowtail snapper into 2 servings. Place 1 whole lobster and half a yellowtail snapper on each plate. Top the lobster with the Mango Salsa. Serve with grilled vegetables of your choice and Garlic Whipped Boniato.
• In a non-reactive dish, combine all ingredients and mix well. Marinate the scored yellowtail snappers in the Fresh Mojo in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.
• In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve over grilled lobsters. Yield: 15 servings
• Bring a large pot of water to the boil and then salt the water.
• Use a paring knife to peel the boniato. Boil until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. Strain and then transfer to the bowl of an electric mixer. Add remaining ingredients to mixer and then mix until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and boniato is mashed.

Steps:

• Place the boniato in a large pot with cold salted water to cover and slowly bring t a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and gently simmer the boniato until very tender, about 10 minutes.
• Drain the boniato well and return to the pot. Mash with a potato masher or put through a ricer. Do not use a food processor to mash the boniato or it will taste gummy.
• Add the butter and cream and continue mashing to form a creamy puree. Season with nutmeg, salt and pepper to taste.
