Ingredients

  • 3 large unripe plantains
  • Oil for deep frying
  • Salt

Steps

  1. Peel plantains and cut into very thin rounds or lengthwise slices. Heat about 10cm (4 inches) rapeseed oil in a large wok over medium-high heat. Put a couple of plantain pieces into the oil to test it: they should sizzle and immediately rise to the top.
  2. Fry in batches for one to three minutes, with the cooking time depending greatly on slice thinness.
  3. Drain excess oil on a wire rack, then sprinkle with a little salt to serve.
