BANAN PEZE (CRISP FRIED PLANTAINS)
Salt water is the key to making these golden, starchy disks crisp and salty. Smashed and fried plantains are a popular staple around the Caribbean, where they are called tostones, patacones or, in Haiti, where this recipe comes from, banan peze.

Steps:
- Slice the plantains crosswise into thick slices, about 1 1/4 inches. (You should get about 5 slices per plantain.)
- In a bowl large enough to hold the plantains, combine the salt with 1/2 cup water and stir until dissolved. Add plantains and set aside to soak for 15 to 20 minutes.
- In a skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Working in batches to avoid crowding, add plantain slices to skillet. (Keep the salt water used for soaking). When all the slices are in, sprinkle in about 2 teaspoons of the salt water. (It may splatter; keep a lid or splatter screen handy.)
- Cook plantains about 5 minutes, turning once, until golden on both sides and just turning brown at the edges. As they brown, transfer them to paper towels to drain.
- On a chopping board, using a broad solid spatula or a tostonera (plantain smasher), press down on each slice to flatten it into a flat round, about 1/4 inch thick and 2 inches wide.
- Reheat the oil over medium heat. Dip flattened plantains in the salt water and fry the rounds again for about 1 minute on each side, until crispy and golden brown.
- Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.

BANAN PEZE (TWICE-FRIED GREEN PLAINTAIN SLICES)
These are wonderful! Haitian-style or Cuban-style, they are great. The Cuban-Style is to make a garlic melted salted butter to serve over the "Tostones", just before serving and the Haitian-Style is just to add the salt. Traditionally, Banan Peze is served as an essential acompaniment to "Griots" #148369. Once again, some of the terminology is different because I have the recipe in Creole and something is lost in the translation. Received a helping hand from Valentine Joseph.

- In a medium bowl, add the water and salt. Stir and set aside.Cut the heads of the plantains. Then cut the ridges straight down. I recommend doing in multiple places as it makes it easier to peel. Just enough to lift the skin.Once the skin is peeled, cut the plantains diagonally into the desired size.Allow the plantains to sit in the water for a couple of minutes, remove the plantains from the water, pray the plantains with olive oil. Shake well to coat, then place them in the air fryer basket.
- Fry on 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Shaking to cook evenly and adding additional oil, if needed.Once the plantains are fried/cooked (fork through), use a plantain wood press to flatten the plantains.Then dip the plantains in the water again for about 5-10 seconds but no more than 1 minute depending on the quantity or batch for extra seasoning (optional).
- After pressing the plantains, if you choose to dip them in the water again, spray them again with olive oil, be sure to shake well to properly coat. If you did not dip them in the water again, add the pressed plantains back into the air fryer, and cook again for an additional 2 minutes or until you reached the desired crispiness. Serve as a side and enjoy!
