Plátanos Fritos Maduros Con Salsa De Crema Dulce Recipes

FRIED RIPE PLANTAINS - PLATANOS MADUROS FRITOS

Steps:

• Wash and peel the plantains
• Slice the plantains, the best way to slice them is either diagonally or cut the plantain in half and slice lengthwise. The plantain can also be sliced lengthwise full size, but the smaller diagonal or half slices are easier to manage.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a large frying pan and add the plantains
• The plantains will cook very quickly, make sure to turn them before they burn and cook until golden on each side. You can use a spatula or a fork to turn them. If the plantain flesh is still pink or white inside it means that it is not yet fully cooked.
• Thicker slices and less ripe plantains will need longer to cook, and maybe more oil.
• Place the cooked plantains on a paper towel to drain any excess oil.
• Serve warm

PLATANOS MADUROS

Steps:

• Cut ends from plantains and peel fruit. Diagonally cut plantains into 1/2-inch-thick slices. In a large nonstick skillet heat 1/3 cup oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté plantains in batches, without crowding, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes on each side, adding more oil to skillet as necessary. With a spatula transfer plantains as sautéed to paper towels to drain and season with salt if desired.
• Serve plantains immediately.
