Steps:
- Start by slicing the plantains. Cut off the ends of each plantain and discard them. Use the tip of a paring knife to slit the peel lengthwise, then cut the plantain in half. Using your thumb (or a spoon), lift the edges of the peel to help loosen it from the plantain. Remove and discard the peel.
- Once peeled, slice the plantains at an angle, into 1 to 1 ½-inch pieces.
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Working in batches if necessary, add the sliced plantains and fry for about 1 minute per side, or until they soften slightly and gain some color.
- Remove them from the pan and, using a tostonera press or a flat bottomed ramekin (or glass), gently press each slice until about 1/4 inch thick.
- Return the pieces to the hot pan, and fry until crispy, about 2 minutes per side.
- Transfer the tostones to a cooling rack (or a paper towel lined plate) and season generously with salt while they are still hot.
- Serve immediately!

TOSTONES
The twice-fried crisp, flattened green plantains known as tostones are often served as appetizers and side dishes. For me they are the ultimate Puerto Rico snack. Everyone that's not from the island is blown away by their taste, but most of all by the treat's faithful companion, the "mayoketchup," what I call Caribbean cocktail sauce.

Steps:
- Pour 1 1/2 to 2 inches of oil a large saute pan or deep large skillet and place over medium-high heat. Line 2 plates with paper towels.
- Meanwhile, place the plantains on a cutting board and cut off the ends. While holding a plantain firmly, slit the peel lengthwise without cutting into the flesh of the plantain. Cut the plantain in half crosswise. Using the tip of your knife, start to loosen the edges of the skin without cutting into the flesh. Remove the peel of the plantain with your hands. Repeat with the remaining plantains.
- Slice the plantains into 1-inch rounds. Fry the plantains in batches until just golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to one of the paper towel-lined plates to drain.
- Flatten the plantains in a tostonera or on a cutting board by pressing down on the pieces one at a time with a small plate or the bottom of a clean can.
- Working in batches, return the flattened plantains to the saute pan and fry again until they are golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the second paper towel-lined plate.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup and garlic in a small bowl and until completely incorporated.
- Sprinkle the tostones with salt and serve immediately with the mayo-ketchup on the side.
TOSTONES
A staple dish throughout the Caribbean and Latin America, tostones are crisp, flattened plantains that are often served as appetizers and side dishes. Unlike sweet maduros, which are made with very ripe, almost black, yellow plantains, savory tostones are made with unripe green plantains. Tostones are fried twice: The first fry sears the cut sides of the plantains, establishing a base layer of color; the second fry ensures that every edge is golden and crunchy. Tostoneras, wooden tools designed to create the perfect tostone shape, come in handy here, but a flat-bottomed cup will do just fine in its place.

Steps:
- Trim and discard the ends of the plantains. Use a paring knife to cut a slit along the length of the plantain to easily remove the peel, carefully avoiding cutting into the flesh. If the peel is too firm, use a spoon to lift the edges, then discard the peel. Slice the plantain crosswise into 1-inch rounds (about 8 pieces per plantain).
- In a large skillet, heat about 1/8-inch vegetable oil over medium. When the oil shimmers, add the plantains, flat-side down. Fry until beginning to turn golden, about 1 minute per side.
- While keeping the heat on, transfer plantains to a cutting board. Working with one piece at a time, use a tostonera or large flat-bottomed cup to gently press each plantain to about 1/2-inch thick. (If using a cup, keep it as centered as possible to flatten the plantains evenly.)
- Working in batches if necessary to avoid crowding the pan, pan-fry the flattened plantains until golden-brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer tostones to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. While hot, season with salt to taste. Serve immediately.
