Yield Makes 8 (hors d'oeuvres)

Number Of Ingredients 3

About 4 cups vegetable oil
2 pounds green plantains
Equipment: a deep-fat thermometer; an adjustable-blade slicer or Y-shaped vegetable peeler

Steps:

  • Heat 1 inch oil to 375°F in a 4- to 5-quarts heavy pot over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, cut ends from (unpeeled) plantains, then halve plantains crosswise. Cut a lengthwise slit through peel and discard peel. Cut plantains lengthwise into very thin slices (less than 1/16 inch thick) with slicer.
  • Fry plantains in batches of 10 to 12 slices, turning frequently, until golden, about 1 minute per batch. Drain on paper towels, immediately seasoning each batch with salt. Return oil to 375°F between batches.

I'm not a big fan of plantains, but these chips were actually pretty good.

These plantain chips were a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my plantain chips didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked.

These plantain chips were a bit too oily for my taste, but they were still good.
