Fried Sweet Plantains

Method

Preparation

1

Peel and Slice Plantains

Peel the ripe plantains by cutting off the ends and making a slit along the length of the plantain. Remove the skin and slice the plantains diagonally into 1/2 inch thick pieces.

2

Heat Oil

In a large skillet, pour in the vegetable oil and heat it over medium heat until it shimmers.

3

Fry Plantains

Carefully add the sliced plantains to the hot oil in a single layer. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.

4

Drain and Season

Once cooked, remove the plantains from the skillet and let them drain on a paper towel. While they are still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.
