This recipe was a bit too challenging for me. The tostones didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked, and the mojo sauce was a bit too spicy. I think I'll stick to simpler recipes in the future.

I love tostones and mojo sauce, but this recipe was just okay. The plantains were a bit too greasy for my taste, and the mojo sauce was a bit too tangy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
