Steps:
- In a heavy pot, add enough oil to fill halfway. Heat until a deep-frying thermometer reads 350 degrees F or the handle of a wooden spoon begins to sizzle immediately when dipped in the oil.
- Add the plantains and fry until bright yellow and slightly golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon to a sheet of parchment paper. Make sure all pieces are standing tall on the cut side, then place another sheet over the top. Using a small plate, glass or other flat item smash each piece into a 1/4-inch jagged circle.
- Place the plantain discs back in the oil and fry for 4 to 6 more minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Remove to a wire rack and sprinkle with salt.

My 8 year old loved these, so we were pleasantly surprised when she gobbled them up. My daughter likes these sans sauce, but my Husband and I love them with Recipe #356610 This recipe is from Family Fun Magazine. Don't let all the steps scare you, they are very easy to make!

Frying method Tostones are are fried twice– first a shallow fry at a lower temp to soften the plantains, then a second fry at a higher temp to crisp up (after smashing them). If you don’t have a frying thermometer, I highly recommend getting one. I used to think I was skilled enough to work without thermometers, but that was really really dumb of me.

TOSTONES (TWICE-FRIED PLANTAINS)– CARVED CULTURE
Tostones are made from green plantain that is fried twice, is usually salty, and crispy. Sweet plantains are typically soft and come from a more ripe plantain; this is because plantains contain a lot of starch, and as they ripen, the starch turns into sugar. Plantains are a popular ingredient in Latin American and Caribbean cuisine.
