Ingredients
Yield: 3 to 4 servings Time: About 20 minutes
3 medium overripe plantains( cut into ¾-inch slices) 2 tablespoons brown sugar( opt) ¾ cup coconut or vegetable oil Salt
Directions 1. Put the plantains and brown sugar in a medium bowl, and season with salt. Toss to coat the plantains evenly with the sugar. 2. Put the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When it’ s hot, add the plantains and adjust the heat so the oil bubbles gently. Cook, turning once, until the plantains are fully tender and deeply browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain on a plate, and serve hot or warm.
