Start with your shrimp & tomato sauce:

1. In a pan add shrimp cook & remove from pan. Take thin sliced onions & garlic cook until nice & translucent; you will be able to smell the deliciousness of the garlic & onion mixture.
2. Proceed to add sofrito including sazon packet mix until well combined.
3. Incorporate the tomato sauce into pan, combine well. Bring shrimp back into the pan mix & taste for salt; set aside( tomato sauce can also be stored in the refrigerator for three days & can be used for other dishes & meats, just leave the shrimp out & replace with meat of your choice).

Trifongo:

1. Heat oil in dutch oven or any fryer, place plantains in hot oil, fry until a golden brown on both sides.
2. Continue & add green bananas fry until a nice tender feel. Place boiled yuca to fry as well.
3. Take a pilon/mortal/anything you can use to make a mini bowl shape add yuca, plantains, & guineos at a time & smash until nice and compact. Continue on until you have desired size.

Plating:

Take trifongo place on middle of plate(you can place your trifongo as a bowl looking upwards or you can place it looking downwards(upside down)) & add delicious salpicon(a mixture of finely chopped ingredients bound in a thick sauce and used as a filling or stuffing) we have created. Top with fresh cilantro and hot sauce if you desire.
