Sweet Plantains transcend just about all Latino based cuisine.
Sweet Maduros as they are known are easy to make and
accompany just about any entree.
Ingredients;
1 or 2 plantains, ripened until they are yellow and black
Vegetable oil
Directions;
Trim ends of the plantains, peel, and cut diagonally into 1″ pieces.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Place 1 plantain piece in the oil. If it bubbles vigorously, the oil is ready. If it doesn’t, wait another minute, and try again. Working in batches, cook plantains, turning once, until beginning to brown, 1–2 minutes per side. Reduce heat to low and continue to cook, turning occasionally, until soft and deep golden brown, 6–8 minutes.
Transfer to a paper towel-lined tray.
Season with salt and/or sugar, if desired. Serve warm.
