Plantain Chips

Recipe

Total Time: 20min

Servings: 6

Ingredientes

2 green (unripe) plantains

Salt

2 cups vegetable oil or enough to deep fry the plantains

If you buy the green plantains to cook the next day, store them in the fridge. This will help stop the ripening process. On the next day, place the plantains in a large bowl and cover with hot water for about 10 minutes. This will help you remove the shell easily. If you are using the plantains the same day, proceed directly with the steps below. 

Steps

1. Remove the top and bottom of the plantains

2. Remove the shell

3. Heat oil in a pot pan over high heat

4. Thinly slice plantains

5. Deep fry plantains slices until golden brown

6. Remove from oil and dry with paper towel

7. Add salt to taste and serve
