- In a large skillet, heat butter and oil over medium-low heat until butter melts, add plantains and saute until golden brown, and a fork goes through the flesh easily, 10 to 12 minutes. Turn occasionally to brown all sides.
SAUTEED RIPE PLANTAINS
This is a yummy side dish for when you want to try something "different". The hot sauce is our addition but the original recipe excludes it. Either way this is well worth trying and takes very little time to put together

MADUROS (SAUTEED PLANTAINS)
I fell in love with plantains while visiting St. John, USVI. Now my grandkids love them, too! Be sure to choose plantains with very black skins, for best flavor.
