Time 20m

Yield 4 servings as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups water
3 cloves garlic, smashed
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus extra for seasoning
1 1/2 cups vegetable or canola oil
2 green plantains

Steps:

  • Combine water, garlic and salt in medium size glass bowl and set aside.
  • In a large (12-inch) saute pan, heat oil to 325 degrees F. Peel plantains and slice crosswise into 1-inch pieces. Carefully add plantains to oil and fry until golden yellow in color, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side. (The oil should come halfway up the side of the plantain). With a spider or slotted spoon, remove the plantains from the pan and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, standing them on their ends. With the back of a wide, wooden spatula, press each piece of plantain down to half its original size. Then place the plantains in the water and let soak for 1 minute. Remove and pat dry with a tea towel to remove excess water.
  • Bring oil back up to 325 degrees F and return plantains to pan and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a dish lined with paper towels, and sprinkle with salt, if desired. Serve immediately.

HOW TO MAKE THE BEST FRIED PLANTAINS EVER



How to Make the Best Fried Plantains Ever image

Yes,bacon grease.No,they aren't healthy(bacon grease)But they are the best damn fried plantains I've ever eaten(bacon grease!). The Bf made these one day and I was dubious-1 because he's not the best cook and 2 because of a former fat phobia I was wary of bacon grease...but these are amazing.I've been hooked ever since. The key to a great tasting fried plantain(other than bacon grease ;) is to cook them to a caramelized goodness without burning them too much.Green plantains can be tasty too,but for this recipe you want really,really ripe plantains.They should have more black than yellow ,or be all black.You don't want to cook these too fast either,so if they seem to be burning before they're cooked ,turn the heat down .At least 6 -8 minutes per batch.

Time 35m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 very ripe plantains
2/3 cup bacon grease
salt (optional) or sugar, to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat bacon grease over medium -high heat in a heavy skillet.
  • Meanwhile cut ends off of plantains,cut a slit in the skin and peel.Cut into strips lengthwise;you may cut each of these into halves if you like.Cut them thick-it will be hard to cut them thinly anyway if they are very ripe-about 1/4 inch thick is good.Don't worry if your pieces come out a little messy.The taste is more important!
  • The oil is ready when it bubbles as soon as a piece of plantain is slid into it.Add plantain slices,cooking about 1 plantain at a time.When they begin to brown around the edges,turn them and cook until very dark.They should look almost burnt because the sugars in the plantains are caramelized.
  • Remove to a plate lined with paper towels to drain .Sprinkle with salt or sugar if desired and serve hot.
