Fried Plantains and Corn Chips
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Plantains
Peel the ripe plantains and slice them diagonally into 1-inch thick pieces.
Heat the Oil
In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.
Fry the Plantains
Carefully add the sliced plantains to the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
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 while hot.
Serve
Arrange the crispy corn chips on a serving plate alongside the fried plantains. Serve with lime wedges for an extra zing.
