Ingredients

• 2 ripe plantains
• 2 to 3 tablespoons oil (such as canola or vegetable oil), for frying
• Sea salt,

Directions

• Step 1: Gather the ingredients.
• Step 2: Peel plantains by cutting off both ends, and cutting a slit down the side of each plantain.
• Step 3: Remove the plantain peel by peeling it side to side rather than lengthwise. It will come off in sections.
• Step 4: Cut the peeled plantains into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Diagonally is preferred.
• Step 5: Drizzle just enough oil into a nonstick skillet to coat the bottom of the pan, and place it on medium heat.
• Step 6: When the oil begins to shimmer, but not smoke, add plantains (you will have to work in batches). Fry for 1 1/2 minutes on one side, flip and cook for 1 minute on the other side.
• Step 7: Remove plantains from the pan and drain on paper towels.
• Step 8: Continue frying in batches until all the plantains are fried.
• Step 9: Sprinkle lightly with sea salt to give a sweet and salty taste to your fried ripe plantains.
