Platanos Maduros... Cuban style fried sweet plantains. The trick is to to let your plantains ripen to a nice black- the darker the more sweet... if not they will be starchy and unsweet like a potato. As found on my blog: http://just-call-me-t.blogspot.com/2011/07/bananarama.html

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 2

4 ripened (black) plantains
canola oil (enough to cover 1/4 inch of pan)

Steps:

  • 1. Cover pan 1/4 inch with Canola oil and set to medium. Slice ripened plantains at an angle, about 1/4 - 1/2 inch each. NOTE: You have to let your plantains ripen to a nice black- the darker the more sweet... if not they will be starchy and unsweet like a potato.
  • 2. Fry plantains until carmalized- turning over once. Set them on a paper towel to absorb the oil. Eat as is- no need for sugar they are sweet enough!
