Ingredients
Cooking Instructions
step 1
Heat the Corn Oil (as needed) over medium heat in two separate skillets.
step 2
While the oil is heating up, peel the plantains. Cut the Plantain (1) into about 1-inch circles. Cut the Plantain (1) in thinner diagonal slices.
step 3
Fry green plantain for about 1 minute on each side and set aside. At the same time, fry yellow plantain until each side is nice and golden. Set aside until serving.
step 4
Take the green plantain circles and flatten them. You can smash them with the bottom of a plate, pan, or cup. Put the flattened plantains back in the oil and fry for another 2-3 minutes until nice and crunchy. Remove the plantains and drain them on paper towels.
step 5
In a small bowl, mix Corn Oil (4 Tbsp), Fresh Cilantro (1/2 tsp), and Garlic (1/4 tsp). Serve with the plantains.
