Fried Plantains Ingredients

Method

Fried Plantains Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Plantains

    Peel the ripe plantains and slice them diagonally into 1/2 inch thick pieces.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.

  3. 3

    Fry the Plantains

    Carefully add the sliced plantains to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown.

  4. 4

    Drain and Season

    Once fried, remove the plantains from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with a little salt while still warm.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the fried plantains warm, drizzled with sweetened condensed milk.
