Ingredients

  • plantains (you cannot do it on )
  • vegetable oil (at least 400ml)
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Peel the plantain.

  2. 2

    You can cut it round or long like me. It's important that it's reaaally think to make it nicer (about 1mm thick) so I recommend that you use a mandolin to have it nice and even.

  3. 3

    Heat the oil to medium heat. If you're making them long make sure you're using a pan where they fit.

  4. 4

    Fry the plantains in small batches so they don't stick to each other nor decrease the temperature of the oil.

  5. 5

    Take them out and put onto a bowl with kitchen paper to absorb the excess fat.

  6. 6

    Add salt and serve ?
