Procedure:
Peel the plantains. You should wear gloves. You may also wet your hands with dishwashing detergent and allow to dry on your hands. When you have finished peeling the plantains, rinsing your hands under running water will wash off most of the gooey stuff that green plantains exude when they are peeled. Cut the plantains into pieces about one inch long. Boil in water with the salt added for about ten minutes, until the pieces can be pierced easily with a fork. Do not overcook, though. Sautée the onion in oil and vinegar until well cooked. Mash the plantain pieces in a mortar (pilón), blending the onion gravy in.

Enjoy!!!
