Like my grandma used to cook them. Excellent.
I chose not to use salt and came out just as good.

I used to eat plantains a lot when I used to live in Malaysia. It was a very popular late afternoon snack and I was always looking forward to having them. These bring back memories of when I was in the middle of Borneo and after a long day trekking in the jungle 🙂

This is a different fried plantain recipe than I’ve cooked before (though I’ve eaten them this way), Looks even easier than the brown sugar-lime juice-rum way I cook them for dessert!
Melanie williams says
Mmm I will be trying this out. I love Plantains, as I tried them once dining out, but never actually give this a go at home before xx

I remember having these in Mexico when I was on a family vacation once – they’re so good! I can’t remember what they dipped them in as a sauce, but it was also really good. I’m going to have to try these for my kids too. Thanks for sharing 🙂

Fried plantains is one of my favorite snacks. I will also want to spend some time on your posts about tulips, because they look very interesting and I’m a fan of these flowers.
Stephanie says
I’ve made something like this once before and we loved them, but I never tried again. I don’t know why! But, I’ve seen plantains at the grocery store recently, so I’ll have to grab some next time and try this again.

Kate Loves Travel says
These look delicious… but I must admit that I’ve never eaten plantains before. Maybe it’s time to give them a try if I can find any…
GiGi Eats says
Oh man! THESE look cooked to perfection! Even though I have never had plantains before, I feel like I can taste their sweetness by just looking at your photos of them!
