Arañitas

Ingredientes

• 2 green plantains
• 1 cup oil

Preparación

1. 1

   First, cut the ends of your plantains. Make a line going down your plantain and peel. Cut your plantain in half for better handling.

2. 2

   With the aid of a grater, shred your plantain. Do this on the coarse side of the grater.

3. 3

   Now divide your plantain into 8 equal balls. Once divided flatten your balls with a spatula or a plate. Make sure you press down hard so the plantain can stick better together.

4. 4

   The last step is to fry. Over high heat place a large pan and add your oil. Once your oil is hot add your arañitas and fry for 2 minutes on each side or until they get a golden brown color. Serve and if you like you can sprinkle some salt and enjoy.
