Stuffed tostones made effortlessly and ready in minutes? A Cuban on TikTok makes it that easy, and the result will surprise you.


The Cuban Yani (@yanimg30) has left her followers on TikTok craving her famous stuffed tostones with shrimp, a dish that, according to her, is perfect for when hunger strikes and there’s no time to peel plantains. With a lot of humor, Yani showed how she uses the ready-to-go tostones from the Goya brand, saving herself the work of making them from scratch, and how she prepares some simple yet tasty shrimp with spices and seasonings she had on hand.

During the video, Yani joked, "What did you think, that you really needed to peel plantains and start making tostones?" while explaining her quick cooking trick. She also mentioned that sometimes she doesn't even bother going far to buy fresh shrimp: "I can even grab the ones that are already frozen in the freezer." In the end, she made it clear that although the preparation is simple, the taste is amazing.

Users were quick to react, filling the video with laughter and comments. Some focused on the background music, which apparently was the perfect final touch for the video: "The background music is great"; "That music fits super well," said some users amid laughs. Others, like @odalyscabrera39, were inspired to cook: "Today we're having stuffed tostones, thanks." And, of course, there were those who asked for details, like where to buy the tostones or how to prepare the recipe at home. Yani kindly responded: "At @Publix ready, you just need to fry in oil or use the air fryer."

Comments like "The best recipe" and "I need a delivery of those tostones" show that Yani's video is a huge success among her followers, who not only enjoy her laid-back style but also take away useful tips for everyday cooking.
