Mix the plantain puree with the flour and let it rest for 5 minutes. Form the patties and fill them with the refried beans. Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat and fry the plantain patties one by one until they are well browned and remove the excess grease. Blend the tomato, garlic, chili, and season.
