Peel the sweet plantains and put them in salted water to boil for about 15 minutes or until soft.

Test the plantains for doneness with a paring knife.

Mash the plantains while hot with a masher.

Add butter, salt, pepper, and a little water to the mashed plantains to keep the texture soft.

In a skillet, add red onions with enough water to cover the bottom and a tablespoon of vinegar.

Cook the onions on medium-high heat until the liquid evaporates.
