Ingredients

    1. 3 plantains ( ripe, yellow and black)
    2. 1/2 cup cooking oil
    3. salt

Directions

  1. On medium high, heat oil in large frying pan.
  2. Meanwhile, cut each banana in half, across the middle (NOT lengh wise). Now take each banana half and cut 3 slices length wise. Do the same to the other half. You should end up with 6 slices about 2-3 inches long PER a banana. After you have done this with all 3 bananas, there will be a total of 18 slices.
  3. Add the sliced bananas slowly into the hot oil and fry each side for 3-5 minutes or until golden brown.
  4. Remove from pan, drain in paper towel and add salt to taste.
