Plantain patacones with tuna salad🥗🐟 [ESP-ENG]

Hello friends, lovers of delicious food✨! I hope you are very, very well and that your weekend is being wonderful, we are doing well around here.
Many times when we want to eat something easy and delicious at home, I choose to make patacones with tuna salad or chicken salad, which can also be an excellent snack to share with friends at a gathering.
In fact, although I love it, I haven't eaten it for a while, so I decided to prepare it and also to share my way of doing it with you, in case you find it useful and maybe it gets you out of trouble like me, and of course you can add the ingredients you want ....
Without further ado, here is the preparation ⬇️🥗🫕

🥗Preparación | Preparation 🥗

• Preparación de la ensalada

✨ Comencé por realizar la ensalada y para ello corté en pequeños cubos el tomate y la cebolla, y de manera muy pequeña también piqué el cilantro (este le da un toque único a la ensalada, aunque si quieres no lo agregas). Luego con cuidado abrí la lata de atún y agregué en un recipiente junto con los vegetales que habia picado anteriormente.

• Preparation of the salad

✨ I started by making the salad and for this I cut in small cubes the tomato and onion, and in a very small way I also chopped the cilantro (this gives a unique touch to the salad, although if you want you don't add it). Then I carefully opened the can of tuna and added it in a bowl along with the vegetables I had previously chopped.

✨ Agregué sal al gusto, integré todo muy bien para finalmente agregar mayonesa (esto tambien es netamente opcional, ya que si quieres que sea mucho más saludable puedes sustituirla ppr yogurt griego, o un poquito de limón). Revolvi todo muy bien y refrigere mientras hacía los patacones.

✨ I added salt to taste, integrated everything very well and finally added mayonnaise (this is also optional, because if you want it to be much healthier you can substitute it with Greek yogurt, or a little bit of lemon). I stirred everything well and refrigerated while I made the patacones.

• Patacones:

✨ Retiré la concha o cascara del plátano verde, seguidamente lo corte en trozos de unos 4cm, más o menos para llevar a freír en aceite bien caliente por algunos minutos hasta que estén comenzando a dorar y ligeramente cocidos por ambos lados, retiramos del fuego.

• Patacones:.

✨ Remove the shell of the green plantain, then cut it into pieces of about 4cm, more or less to fry in hot oil for a few minutes until they are beginning to brown and slightly cooked on both sides, remove from heat.

✨ Sobre una tabla de cocina coloqué un plástico y cubri el patacón para aplastarlo con ayuda de un plato, y seguidamente llevar a freir de nuevo hasta que nuevamente este dorado por ambos lados. Y listo, ya podemos disfrutar.

📌 En mi caso yo no agregué sal a los patacones ya que los acompañaría con la ensalada que ya tenia sal, de lo contrario puedes agregar un poco antes de volverlos a freir.

✨ On a cooking board I put plastic wrap and covered the patacón to flatten it with the help of a plate, and then fry it again until it is golden brown on both sides. And ready, now we can enjoy.

📌 In my case I didn't add salt to the patacones because I would accompany them with the salad that already had salt, otherwise you can add a little before frying them again.
