INGREDIENTS
AS many green plantains as you want to make
For every 2 plantain, 1 cup of water with 1 tbsp minced garlic
Oil to fry (your choice)
salt
INSTRUCTIONS
Cut plantain into 1" slices
Heat oil until it's hot enough to bounce off a drop of water
fry plantain in batches 2 mins each side on high heat, with the oil hot
Remove from oil after frying into a bowl with paper towels with excess oil
Mash each 1" plantain with something to make them 1/4" or thinner
Dip each mashed plantain in the garlic water
Add more oil and bring back up heat
Add mashed plantain in batches, frying 2 mins each side
Remove to bowl with paper towels and add salt to taste
Serve immediately as a side to a meal or as an appetiser to dip. Good with many different dips: salsas, guacamole, other.... I prefer them to potatoes.

bon appetit
