Ingredients
2 plantains
A couple pinches of salt.
Preparation
Peel the skin from the plantains.
Cutting the Plantains
Cut the plantains into 1.5 inch chunks.
Frying the Plantains
Add plantains to hot oil (I set mine on #7 on the burner’s dial). Fry for about 5 minutes. Remove from oil with slotted spoon and place back on cutting board.
Smashing the Plantains
Smash plantains with potato masher or large rolling pin. Once smash, return to hot oil and fry again for 4-5 minutes. Remove from oil with slotted spoon and set on paper towel to rid of excess oil.
