Print Friendly Recipe Recipe Information Ingredients 1 ripe plantain, with a yellow and black skin 2 tbsp (30 ml) oil Preparation Peel plantain and cut into 1/2 inch thick diagonal slices. Heat oil in skillet over medium heat and fry plantains for several minutes on each side until golden brown. Drain briefly on paper towels. Serve with fried black bean paste and tortillas. Comments Plantains are a staple of Central America/Nicaragua and would make an interesting "show and tell" for your school project. They look like bananas but have an entirely different taste, much like a potato. I frequently see them in our local supermarkets. Good luck!
