What it is
A keto version of the classic Dominican dish, made with mashed cauliflower instead of plantains, mixed with generous amounts of crispy pork rinds (chicharrón), garlic, and olive oil or butter, shaped into a mound. It offers a rich, savory, and satisfying texture.
Key ingredients
Cauliflower, pork rinds (chicharrón), garlic, olive oil, butter, salt, pepper.
If you order it anyway
Ensure no plantain is used; confirm cauliflower mash. Request extra chicharrón and a generous amount of healthy fats (olive oil/butter). Avoid any added starches or sugary glazes often found in plantain Mofongo.
Watch out for
Restaurants might include some hidden potato starch or a small amount of plantain if not explicitly asked. Check for sugary seasoning mixes.
