Plantain Chips

This has become one of me and Crab's favorite snacks.
It is easy and healthy.
And plantians usually being about 79 cents, super cheap.

Plantain Chips



 Get a ripe yellow plantain

 A little bit harder to peel than a banana.
You will normally need to cut them down the middle .
Then pull the peel off.

 Slice them about 1/4th inch thick.
They are starchier than bananas and easy to slice.


You'll want the oil to be hot before you place them in.
Place them in one at a time delicately.


Fill your entire pan with these delicious morsels.
Cook for about 5 minutes.


When they brown flip them over.
Cook for another 4 minutes.


Put them on a paper towel to drain the oil.
Add a sprinkle of sea salt.
Lime juice and some lime zest.
The lime zest adds a tiny bit of a bitter but sweet.
It's delicious.


Enjoy.
=)
