Modo de preparo

Peel the green plantains by cutting off the ends, scoring the skin lengthwise, and pulling it away. Cut each plantain into 3 or 4 chunks.
Put the plantains in a pot with the water and 1 tsp salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer until very soft, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, thinly slice the red onion. Warm the olive oil in a small pan, add the onion and remaining salt, and cook until soft and lightly browned.
Splash in the vinegar and cook 1 minute more so the onions are tangy. Set aside.
Drain the plantains, reserving about 120 ml of the cooking water. Mash them with the butter until smooth, adding reserved water a little at a time until creamy.
Season to taste and serve hot, topped with the vinegary red onions.
