Wow, that is very cool! Thank you. I will try it with green plantain and yuca. Yes, the bollitas give the beans a whole different taste. It also cooks very fast since they are bananas. I love it. =)

ooh – I am definitely going to try it with the bollitas next time. The bollitas sound similar to what is called tom tom in Suriname – basically mashed green plantain is mixed with a little bit of yuca and formed into balls then added to soup. Definitely see the African connection here.

That’s pretty much what I use to make my habichuelas guisadas! I also like to add small pieces of potatoes to our beans or grated green bananas formed into small balls called bollitas. =)
