I just came back from the fruit market?

Question

Does anyone know what a boniato is? or a zapallito? I just bought them because they sounded so funny.

now who wants to cook them and how?

Answer 1

What about the plantains?  I wanted some mofongo, tostones y camarones and arroz con abachuleas.

Answer 2

Boniato is a sweet potato and a zapallito is a little zucchini.

My favourite way of cooking the sweet potato is to drizzle some oil on some skinned chunks and baking them in the oven with whole onions.

Not a huge fan of zucchini, I really like them slathered in salt and pepper, spread with a little oil and grilled.

Answer 5

I know them both !  They are cousins & are owners of the fruit market ..

Originally they came from Sicilly but they migrated to Sydney & had the fruit & veg shop in a Five Dock

They migrated to Uraguay in the late 70's  & must have done well to have fruit or veg named after them !
