Green Banana Salad

Craig, my assistant, and I were very surprised to see this sala on the menu of a delightful Puerto Rican restaurant in Miami called El Coqui, or The Little Frog. They fed us very well and we finally realized that plantains and green bananas are just as versatile as potatoes. This recipe is a perfect example.
