Seasoned Plantain Fries

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients 

• 4 green plantains peeled and cut into 4-inch french fry pieces

• 1 cup of avocado oil or similar oil for frying

Seasoning

• 1 teaspoon of onion powder

• 1 teaspoon of granulated garlic

• 1/2 teaspoon of salt

• 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika

• Pinch of black pepper

• About 1 teaspoon of parsley flakes or 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley

Sauce

• 1 cup mayo

• 1/4 cup ketchup

• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

• 1 tablespoon coconut aminos

• Salt to taste

• Pinch Cayenne Pepper

Instructions 

1. Combine all the seasoning for the plantain fries, except the parsley flakes or fresh parsley in a bowl and mix well.

2. Then add the plantains and toss until fully coated with the seasoning.

3. Add oil to a large skillet or frying pan on medium heat and bring up to temperature.

4. When the oil is hot, add a batch of seasoned plantains to the oil so that they are in a single layer. I typically fry my plantain fries in 3 batches.

5. Cook on medium heat until all the sides are golden brown. Use a spatula to flip the plantains for even cooking throughout frying.

6. Remove the plantain fries from the oil and place in a bowl lined with parchment paper then sprinkle with a pinch of parsley flakes or fresh parsley and mix.

7. Continue steps 4 to 6 until all the seasoned plantain is fried.

Making the sauce

• Combine all the ingredients in a small mixing bowl and mix well.

• Serve the plantain fries with the fry sauce and enjoy.
