Fried plantains

Directions

1. With a sharp knive, peel the plantains, cut them in half length-wise and cut each half in rectangles of half-an-inch each.

2. Heat up the oil in a skillet/deep fryer. Sprinkle all the cut plantain pieces with salt.

3. Add a couple of pieces of chopped onions to the oil, when the onions start sizzling, the oil has reached the right temperature.

4. Transfer the plantains in the oil and fry each side until golden brown by turning the rectangles intermittently using a skimming ladle.

5. Serve hot as a side or a snack, accompanied by a tomato gravy.
