This dish gets a little messy so i use the disposable aluminum pan. Spread some of the egg wash enough to cover the bottom of the pan.( not too much)
Start placing the plantains the way shown in the picture
Cover the bottom of the pan with the plantains
Now add the ground beef, add a layer of ground beef
Make sure you cover the layer of plantains. It should look like this
Now layer the ground beef with the plantains.As you can see this is almost like a lasagna. If you want, you can add another layer. Its the same process
Pour egg wash on top of the plantains, just to seal the casserole together ( not too much) It should look like a glaze of egg wash

Ambar! I tried the one you made and it was AMAZING!!!!! My boyfriend loved it and is asking for me to make it! 🙂 Thanks for your awesome recipes!
I am making this now accompanied with arrow amarillo
OMG!! I found this on facebook. When I was a teenager my friend’s mom made this for dinner (with cheese). I remember trying to describe it to my mother. I told her it was like plantain lasagna. She was confused and never tried to replicate it. Many years later I tried to replicate it and it turned out so weird lol. Thank you for posting it! I now know what I did wrong. I didn’t precook the plantains!! And my seasoning was off too. Thank you thank you!!
lol I am so glad I can help! This is such a tasty meal! I think it’s part of a lot of our childhoods! Love it!Thank you for your sweet comment!
Thanks so much for the delicious recipes ❤️
