TOSTONES (TWICE FRIED GREEN PLANTAINS) WITH MAYO-KETCHUP DIPPING SAUCE



Tostones (Twice Fried Green Plantains) with Mayo-Ketchup Dipping Sauce image

I love plantains and I craved these all the time when I was pregnant. They are great as a side dish or appetizer. After you smash them, but before you fry them the second time, you can put them in a resealable plastic bag and freeze them for later. There's no need to defrost them but be careful when you drop them in the hot oil. You can adjust the mayonnaise to ketchup ratio to your liking and add more or less garlic.

  • Begin by adding roughly around ½ cup of oil to your frying pan (oil should be an inch deep). Start heating the frying pan over medium heat.
  • Start peeling the green plantains by cutting the ends off and slicing along the side of the plantain on each side of the plantain. With your fingers, peel the plantain skin like you would with a banana. After your plantains are skinless, cut them into 1-inch slices and place into a large bowl.
  • At this point, your oil in the pan should be ready to fry. Place the 1-inch sliced plantains in the pan and fry each side for about 3-4 minutes. They should be a golden color before taking them out and placing them in a separate bowl. Do not over cook them because you will be frying them once more.
  • You need to flatten the golden plantains and a bamboo tostonera is perfect for this. If you do not have one, using a coffee cup or a similar flat object like a plate to smash them. Then you will fry them once more while flattening for another 2-3 minutes per side or until crispy golden brown
