The green Plantain is one of the most important accompaniments of Colombian gastronomy. In fact it has become a very popular main dish which is known as toasts, tostones or banana patacones.

We are a tropical country and we have this plant that is from the family of bananas, but it is not the same, the plantain is used as one of the main ingredients of the famous Colombian stew.
