FRIED PLANTAIN RECIPE WITH SWEET 'N HOT SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese, bananas, peppers and nutmeg until well blended; set aside.
• Heat oil in large heavy saucepan to 375°F. Add plantains, in batches; fry 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels; cool. Smash each plantain with the bottom of heavy pan or with a rolling pin. Return plantain slices to the hot oil; fry an additional 1 to 2 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
• Serve with the cream cheese sauce.

SWEET FRIED PLANTAINS

Steps:

• Heat about 1-inch of oil in heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil registers 340 degrees F. Line a large plate with paper towels.
• Peel the plantains and discard the skins. Slice into 1/4-inch thick pieces. Fry the plantains in oil, turning occasionally, until a golden brown color, about 2 to 4 minutes. The longer the plantains fry the sweeter they are. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle the plantains with a little salt.
• Put the sugar and cinnamon in a brown bag, drop the warm plantains into the bag, and shake to coat evenly. Serve with rum whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.
• Whip the cream just until soft peaks form. Add the rum and whip again, taking care not to over whip your cream. Serve now or refrigerate until ready to serve.

FRIED PLANTAINS WITH SWEET HEAT

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the juice of 1/2 of lime, sweet chili sauce, mustard, horseradish and vinegar. Set aside.
• Heat 1/2-inch of oil in 12-inch heavy pan.
• Cut plantain on diagonal into 1-inch thick pieces, remove peel.
• When oil is hot, add the plantains and fry both sides until golden.
• Drain on paper bag, and sprinkle with salt, and minced garlic. With a flat bottomed, heat proof, glass bowl, smash plantains evenly flat, embedding garlic into them. Return to hot oil and fry until dark golden brown. Remove, drain again on a paper bag, adding more coarse salt, to taste, the red pepper flakes, the cayenne pepper and a squeeze of lime.
• Serve while hot with sweet heat sauce.
