PLATANOS FRITOS/FRIED PLANTAINS
Fried plantains are an excellent accompaniment to many foods, but also a great breakfast or snack, they are delicious just like that, or with cheese. I like them with cheese because is salty and contrasts well with the sweetness of the plantains.
Ingredients:
2 ripe plantains
1 tsp canola or vegetable oil
Optional-cheese (feta if you want a salty cheese such as mozzarella parmesan cheese or grated cheese that melts or any other that melts well)
preparation:
1. Peel and cut diagonally 1 / 3 inch thick.
2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat, add the plantains when the oil is hot.
3. The plantains are cooked very quickly, it is important to turn them over so they wont stick and burn , the ideal is that they are golden on both sides.
4. Serve the hot , if you want to add cheese just sprinkle it over the hot plantains.
