This dish is a true representation of our vibrant culinary culture and is sure to brighten your morning.
Let’s explore how to whip up this delightful meal with ease.
Dominican's Favorite Breakfast
In modern Dominican life, breakfast has shifted towards lighter options. Many of us have moved from rural areas to urban settings, where our jobs don’t require a heavy morning meal. As a result, we’ve embraced quicker, yet still satisfying, breakfast choices.
What’s Included in "Los Tres Golpes"?
Los Tres Golpes, which translates to "The Three Hits," features golden fried cheese, crispy fried salami and perfectly cooked sunny-side-up eggs, all served with a side of Mangú.
Understanding Mangú
Mangú is a delicious dish made from green plantains. To prepare it, you peel and boil the plantains until tender, then mash them until they reach a creamy consistency. This is achieved by adding a bit of liquid—usually cold water —and a touch of butter, to enhance the flavor.
Traditionally, mangú is topped with sautéed red onions, adding a burst of flavor that complements the dish beautifully.
Fried Dominican Salami
For those unfamiliar with Dominican cuisine, the concept of fried salami might seem unusual. However, this dish is distinct from Italian salame or Spanish salchichón, offering a unique taste that is a staple in our breakfast tradition.
