Time 20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 green plantains
2 cups vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Peel plantains and cut into 1-inch thick rounds.
  • Heat the oil in a small saucepan until hot but not smoking. Drop the plantain rounds into the hot oil 3 or 4 at a time and cook until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  • Set each fried plantain on a flat side, and using a rolling pin, frying pan, or whatever else you think will work, squash it as flat as you can. It should have a circular shape.
  • Return the flattened plantain sections to the hot oil 3 or 4 at a time and cook until the entire surface is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove the plantains from the oil, drain, and season liberally with salt and pepper. Serve hot or at room temperature.

I've tried other plantain recipes before, but this one is by far the best. The double-frying makes them extra crispy and delicious.

These double-fried plantain rounds were a hit at my party! They were crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. I served them with a spicy dipping sauce and they were gone in no time.
