MADUROS (FRIED SWEET PLANTAINS)
Tender in the middle and crisp at the edges, maduros, or sweet fried plantains, are served as a side dish throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Plantains change color as they ripen: They are firm when green and unripe, then soften as they turn yellow, and eventually, black. Like bananas, plantains develop more sugar as time passes. For the sweetest maduros, use blackened plantains - they have the most sugar, and will yield a more caramelized result. If you can only find yellow ones at the store, buy them in advance and be prepared to wait over a week for them to fully ripen. They're worth it.

Steps:
- Use a paring knife to cut a slit along the length of the plantains, carefully avoiding cutting into the flesh. Remove peels and discard. Slice plantains at an angle crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick pieces (about 12 pieces per plantain).
- In a large skillet, heat about 1/8 inch vegetable oil over medium-high. When the oil shimmers, add half the sliced plantains and fry until golden brown, turning once, 2 to 3 minutes per side. The plantains should be caramelized and slightly crisp at the edges but still tender in the middle.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer maduros to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining sliced plantains. Serve immediately.

- Peel and chop onion. Heat oil in a frying or sauté pan over low heat. Add chopped onions, kosher salt and sugar. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally until soft and translucent (do not brown) ~ 20-30 minutes. Add butter and continue cooking for 5 more minutes. Set aside. (This can be done earlier in the day or the day before and refrigerated).
- Green plantains can be challenging to peel if they are extremely green; therefore, I prefer to purchase 1 or 2 days before using (see the picture for the preferable ripeness). Cut off the plantain ends and score the peel lengthwise and peel off. Slice thin (about 1/4" thick) slices on a diagonal. Pour oil into a frying pan to a depth of ~ 3/8". Heat oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Pan fry plantains flipping over halfway through cooking time until cooked through and they can be pierced with a fork ( ~ 3-5 minutes total). They won't be fork tender but they will be able to be pierced. Don't overcook. It's fine to brown a little but you're not going for dark brown. Remove from pan and blot dry with paper towels.
