Beans in Yellow Boats

2 Large firm yellow plantains
4 oz. boiled beans
4 oz. cooked meat or fish, minced
2 T. chopped herbs
2 oz. margarine
4 oz. cheese, grated

Preheat the oven to 400 F.

Cut the plantains in half, lengthwise, reserving the skins to make the plantain cases. Boil the plantains until soft and mash. Combine the beans and minced meat or fish with the plantain.

Season the mixture with the chopped herbs and salt and pepper. Add the margarine. Fill the plantain cases with the mixture. Sprinkle with the grated cheese. Fix with a skewer or toothpick in order to keep a good shape. Place the filled cases on a baking sheet.

Bake at 400 F for 10 minutes or grill for 2 minutes.
