CARAMELIZED PLANTAIN PARFAIT

Use plátanos manzanos-a short, fat, and incredibly sweet plantain variety-if you can find them. When pan-fried, the outside caramelizes and forms a hard shell while the inside becomes soft and custardy (like crème brûlée!). Look for them in Latin and Caribbean supermarkets or in the tropical fruit section of large supermarkets.
