Fried Plantains
Serve as a side dish or as a dessert.
Instructions
- Allow at least half a plantain per person. Leaving the skin on, cut them in half,
and put them into a pan of cold water. Bring them to a boil. It should take about
15 minutes of boiling to get them to the proper degree of softness.
- Drain them,
cool them, and cut the two halves of each in two again. Gently press them flat and
sauté them in hot butter.
- Drain on paper towel and serve. If you want, you can sprinkle
them with powdered sugar or drizzle them with honey.
They work as a dessert or a side dish.
