Recipe - Foo Foo (Pounded Plantain)

3 Green plantain
1 Ripe but firm plantain
2 tablespoon Butter
Salt and pepper to taste

from: Caribbean Cookbook by Rita G. Springer

Boil plantains. when soft, pound them in a large mortar. Dip pestle in cold
water in between pounding to prevent sticking. when smooth, mix with
butter, salt and pepper. keep warm.

I like this with almost any meat as a substitute for rice or potatoes.
