Plantain Chips
Plantain Chips
Ingredients
raw (green) plantains
oil
salt
water
Method
Mix salt with water to make a salt solution. Skin the plantains.
Boil the oil in a frying pan. Once the oil is boiling, slice the
skinned plantains to
about 1/16" thick, directly into the oil.
Any commercially available slicer may be used for this.
Control the heat so that the plantains are not burned.
Once the plantains are about half fried (the color starts to change),
sprinkle the
salt solution into the oil as needed.
Fry the plantains to a crispy stage. Remove the fried plantains
from oil and drain
them in paper towels.
Once the fried plantains are at room temperature, keep them in closed
container.
Note: When salt solution is added to the boiling oil, it will hiss,
puff and make all
kinds of frightening noises. Once you get used to it, you will be
OK. First few
times, you may be scared. Try to control the heat to make the frying
an event less
activity.
