Instructions

1. 1 Bring the whole plantains with enough water to cover to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the plantains are tender and the skins have cracked, about 45 minutes. Drain and set aside until cool enough to handle.
2. 2 Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
