This is a Vegan Dish made up with fried crushed half ripe plantains and seasoned mushroom. I am not a everyday vegan person but at times I like to skip meat and fish and just use vegetables or beans as a replacement. This is a simple dish to make and very low cost. You can also use green plantain for this dish also.
