Re: Side Dishes
Goodwin's Coconut Mango Sticky Rice (Mango cut with an old U.S. Army knife, of course)
(I always make this on Wednesdays to put me in a Lost mood)
1 1/2 cups sushi (short grain) rice. ***Long grain rice, or minute rice WILL NOT w*rk!
2 cups water
1 can coconut milk
3/4 cup sugar or Splenda
sliced mango (or pineapple, if you prefer)
Combine rice and water in medium sauce pan and cook on medium heat until it comes to a rolling boil, stirring occasionally. Once it's boiling, reduce heat to low or simmer and cover. Do not remove cover until rice is soft and all liquid is absorbed (about 20 minutes). Turn off burner. Add sugar and cocnut milk to rice. Stir, then recover and let sit until all the coconut milk is absorbed (about 20 minutes). Top with mango or pineapple, or both!

Re: Side Dishes
Gone but not Forgotten Funeral Potatoes
Ingredients:
6 cups diced potatoes*
1 can (10 ¾ oz.) cond. cream chicken soup
1/2 soup can milk
1 cup sour cream
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1/4 cup grated onion (optional) **
salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3/4 cup corn flake crumbs
Method:
Cook fresh potatoes or thaw frozen potatoes (see *note below). Place potatoes in a 2-3 quart casserole dish or a 9x13 cake pan.
Combine soup, milk, sour cream, cheese, and onion (see **note below) and salt and pepper to taste. If a saucier dish is desired, add 2-3 tablespoons additional milk. Mix well. Spread sauce over potatoes.
Melt butter and combine with corn flake crumbs. Sprinkle crumbs over casserole. Bake uncovered at 350 F for 30-45 minutes or until hot and bubbly throughout.
Notes:
* Use approximately 6-8 peeled, diced, and cooked fresh potatoes; or approximately 2 pounds frozen, southern style, diced hash browns (not shredded). ** Use 1 tablespoon dried onion or sauté 1/4 cup fresh chopped onion in 1 tablespoon butter until transparent.
There are probably as many variations in how to make this dish, as there are names for it. Whatever you call it (or how you make it) it is tasty dish, which is often served with ham and green beans. Recipe serves approximately 8.

Re: Side Dishes
Tostones
3 green plantains
canola oil
Adobo seasoning (Goya, con pimenta variety is best).
Sauce:
lots of crushed garlic
olive oil
Peel plantains and slice into 1/2 inch thick rounds. Heat oil (enough to cover the plantains halfway up) until it's shimmery. Fry plantains for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Place slightly cooled slices between sheets of waxed paper. Using a mallet (or something flat), flatten the plantain slices to half their original thickness. Fry again for 2-3 minutes (until lightly golden).
Remove and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle lightly with Adobo.
Sauce: Mix olive oil and crushed garlic together to taste. I love garlic, so mine is more like a paste than a sauce. If you don't like as much garlic, use less and it will be more saucy.
Serve the sauce on the side for dipping.
