Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Peel the plantain.

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

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

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

  6. Add salt and serve ????
