Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Plantains

    Peel the ripe plantains and slice them diagonally into 1-inch thick pieces.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it is hot but not smoking.

  3. 3

    Fry the Plantains

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

  4. 4

    Drain and Season

    Remove the fried plantains from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt to taste.

  5. 5
