Fried ripe plantains (Amarillos) and Fried green plantains (Tostones)



The Tostones are pretty good with MayoKetchup sauce.

I think I had fried plantains in Indonesia as well. I loved them.

Did you taste them with Mayoketchup, did they fry them in garlic?

I've had tostones and they are very good, but have not yet tried the amarillos. I just got some ripe plantains today so I will have to make them.

The best thing I've ever had with plantains is empanadas de platano, which is a Salvadoran dish. Dear God, they are incredible! They are made of mashed sweet plantains stuffed with a chilled milk custard, then deep-fried and rolled in sugar. I had them for the first time today for dessert after I was already stuffed full of pupusas or I might have made a meal of them alone.

I did not taste any of them. I just had them.. without any spices.
