Working time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 10 minutes
hearty as a side dish
Peel the plantains. This is best done by first cutting off both ends. Cut a knife into the skin lengthwise. Then (preferably in a sink under running water) “crack” the skin open with your thumb along the cut and peel it off, if possible in one piece. Cut the bananas diagonally into approximately 1 cm thick slices and fry them lightly on both sides in plenty of oil. They shouldn’t brown yet! Remove the slices from the pan and gently press them between two wooden boards. Then fry these slices briefly on both sides in hot oil until lightly browned. Caution: They burn quite quickly. Remove from the oil, drain a little on kitchen paper, season with salt, and serve as hot as possible. They go great with any dish with lots of sauce, like curry, goulash, etc. I don’t necessarily need anything else, though.
