Calories: 70kcal
Ingredients
- 2 sweet plantains
- ½ cup oil
Instructions
- Cut the ends of your sweet plantain. Make a vertical line going down and peel. You can cut it into diagonal pieces, circles or long strips.
- In a large pan add your oil and set to medium heat. Fry for about 3 minutes on each side or until you see a nice golden brown color. Remove from oil and drain over a paper towel to remove any excess oil. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
- The riper your plantain the sweeter it will be. If your plantain is very sweet it tends to get brown faster when frying.
- You can make these amarillos ahead of time and freeze until you are going to serve them.
