Steps:
- Cut the tips off the plantains. Score the plantains lengthwise on both sides and place in a bowl. Cover with boiling water. Let sit for 10 minutes. Peel, using a small sharp knife, and slice into 1/2inch slices.
- Heat the oil to rippling in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook the plantains for 10 minutes. Remove the plantain slices from the oil (reserving the oil) and place in one layer on a tea towel or several layers of absorbent paper on a counter top. Turn to remove excess oil. Using bunchedup absorbent paper or another tea towel, press down on each slice. Heat the reserved oil to 375 degrees and fry the plantains until crisp and golden. Season with garlic powder and salt.
FRIED PLANTAIN CHIPS
Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together the garam masala, smoked paprika, salt and pepper and set aside.
- Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the plantains into very thin slices, about 1/8-inch thickness.
- Pour the oil into a large, heavy bottomed pot and heat it to 350 degrees F. The oil level should come one-third of the way up the sides of the pot. If there is too much oil, it will overflow when the chips are added. Alternatively, use a deep-fryer.
- Fry the plantain slices in batches in the hot oil until crispy and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir them a bit while they fry to prevent them from sticking together. Remove the plantains and drain on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with the spice mixture and serve.
- Alternatively, the plantain chips can be cooled and stored in an airtight container for up to 10 days.

Steps:
- 1. You want to use a knife to open a plantain. 1st cut off the ends. Then, on the OUTER curve of the plantain, slice vertically down the skin. From that incision pull away the skin. (Should take bout 5 minutes)
- 2. Cut the plantain into 1-inch circles. Add the peanut oil to a skillet and raise heat to HIGH. (You want to get the oil hot pretty fast).
- 3. Put in as many plantains to the skillet till it's filled. Flip over plantains every 1-2 minutes until the pale yellow color turns a light gold. Turn down heat to MEDIUM, and remove the skillet from the heat. Remove plantains and place them on a plate. Use a glass cup or "Plantain Smasher" to smush the plantains into chips. Continue this step until all plantains are smushed.
- 4. Place skillet back to the heat and turn it back to HIGH. Add the chips to the oil again. Turn over chips every 3-4 minutes. (This will let the plantain fully cook).
- 5. Remove plantains and place on plate, sprinkle salt while they are still hot. You can add this dish to any Hispanic meal or any meal in general. Using peanut oil makes it a bit more healthier.
PLANTAIN CHIPS (PLATANUTRES)
Plantains are a member of the banana family and look like large bananas. They are hard and starchy when green, and are used much like a potato. They turn yellow, and then black, as they ripen. This is a yummy way to fix them! Prep time includes soaking time.
