Sweet Baked Plantains

4 extremely ripe plantains, peeled and sliced lengthwise

8 tablespoons butter

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1/4 cup dark Bacardi rum

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the brown sugar and continue cooking, stirring occasionally until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce starts to thicken somewhat. Add the cinnamon and the rum and remove from heat.

Place the plantains in a covered baking dish. Pour the sauce on the plantains. Cover and bake 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the plantains over, baste with the sauce in the dish, and continue baking uncovered for about 15 minutes. This will allow the plantains to brown slightly.

This painting represents the dual culture of Cuban-Americans here symbolized by both the traditional espresso coffee pot -- for those cafe con leches -- and the ubiquitous American drip coffee maker, which is found in offices, work sites, and most American homes.

Tony has sold many of these at art shows around Florida. It is especially popular with Cuban-Americans who live this dual culture. Also a great gift for Cubans married to Americans!
