Ingredientes
- 2pcs Plantain banana heart (sliced thinly)
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)

- Unwrap the banana heart until what’s left is the mainly yellow part. This is done by removing the red or maroon leaf-like wrap and the banana blossoms under it, do it again and again. Next cut off the stem part and throw away together with the skin that is unwrapped.
- Prepare water with salt in a large bowl.
- Slice the banana heart into about 1/4 inch thick pieces starting from the smallest part. Add the sliced pieces in the bowl. This is to prevent them from turning black.
- Drain the water from the banana heart slices and add a teaspoon of salt. Using clean bare hand, mix the banana heart slices and squeeze to let out the sap. Do this again and again until the juice from the banana heart slices have come out completely. Doing this process will eliminate the sap and the traces of acrid taste.
- Heat oil in a saucepan over moderate heat. Then saute garlic and onion until they the garlic starts to turn brown and the onion translucent.
- Add in the squeezed banana heart slices and stir for a minute or two. Add salt and pepper.
- Add in water and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 5 to 10 minutes. Then add the vinegar. Do not stir after adding the vinegar to let it cook the vinegar taste. Simmer for 2 minutes more.
- When it starts boiling stir and season with fish sauce.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a serving bowl.
- Serve hot with steamed rice.
