Ingredients
- 2 Ripe plantains, sliced in half, then in strips
- 225 gm Cottage cheese
- 3 Egg yolks
- 3 Egg whites
- 20 ml Dry breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp Sugar
- 80 ml Olive oil
- 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
Directions
Fry plantain strips in the oil until brown on both sides. Mix cheese, cinnamon, and sugar in a bowl. Beat egg yolks in one bowl, and the whites stiffly in another. Grease a baking dish, and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
Fold stiff egg whites into yolks, pour a quarter into the dish and spread on the egg mixture and a layer of fried plantain. Cover with quarter of cheese and some olive oil. Repeat layers, until ingredients are used up.
Save a little egg mix and oil to pour over final layer. Bake in 180 deg. C oven for 40 minutes. Serve with meat.
