ROASTED SWEET PLANTAINS



Roasted Sweet Plantains image

I first had plantains when I moved to the UK and to an area that has a large Caribbean and Nigerian population. They are yummy and sort of like a banana but not exactly as they need to be cooked. This is a really easy way of trying out plantains without being afraid of what to do with them. You don't really need the cooking spray but it wouldn't let me post a recipe with just one ingredient.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 ripe plantains ((yellow with brown spots // see post above for tips on choosing plantains!))
1 Tbsp melted coconut oil ((or avocado oil))
1 healthy pinch sea salt ((optional))
Magic Green Sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F (218 C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • To cut the plantains, trim and discard the ends. Then use the tip of your knife to make a shallow cut lengthwise through the peel, doing your best not to pierce the flesh of the plantain. Remove the peel and slice the plantain on an angle into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Place the sliced plantains on the prepared baking sheet and toss with oil and salt (optional).
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then flip and bake for another 5-10 minutes or until golden brown and slightly caramelized on both sides.
  • They're delicious paired with our Easy Vegan Picadillo, Smoky Instant Pot Black Eyed Peas & Greens, Black Bean Plantain Vegan Bowls, Jamaican Jerk Grilled Eggplant (30 Minutes!), or either of the sauces recommended above.
  • Best when fresh. Store leftover plantains in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days and reheat on the stovetop or in the oven until warmed through. Not freezer friendly.
