INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 ts Salt
- 2 tb Warm water
- 1/4 ts Cinnamon; ground
- 4 lg Yellow plantains ; ripe
- 1/4 ts nutmeg ; Grated
- Vegetable oil ; for frying
- 1 tb Ground cloves
- 2 tb Fresh ginger ; grated
- 1/2 ts Ground red pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cut plantains into diagonal slices about 1 /2-inch thick. Stir together ginger, cloves, red pepper, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon in medium bowl. Stir in water to form paste. Add plantain slices; toss to coat. Let stand 30 minutes. 2. Heat oven to 200 degrees. Pour enough vegetable oil into large skillet to reach 1/2-inch up sides. Heat oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. (An electric skillet should be set at 350 degrees.) Fry plantain slices, in batches, turning once, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer fried plantains with slotted spoon to paper towel-lined baking sheet; keep warm in oven while frying remaining plantains. Posted to bbq-digest by Lloyd
