Platanos Maduros (Fried Plantains)

Silly thing to hate, its popular because of Hispanics is all. You must be sick then seeing as how you're in the Bronx and all. Anyway I prefer Tostones with a little mojito. Cant beat it

dont season them but if you are feeling creative and have a bunch of ripe plantains try making pastelon.
This Sheppard pie but instead of potato based its platano and instead of veggies its cheese

First, they aren't exactly popular. It's not a common food you can get just anywhere. Only places that serve them are Hispanic, Caribbean, or African food joints and maybe a few Chinese spots in the hood lol. Second, this exactly what I'm talking about. This isn't some food special to Hispanics prepared in a special way. You prepare it the same as everyone else, you fry it and eat it. Yet ya'll be acting like you put the world up on game

. Third, I don't live in the Bronx anymore genius. By the way it never phased me, just an observation I've had since I been eating plantains since I hopped up out the womb.

P.S. - I love spanish food. Pernil>>>*

Google: Turon
most classic turon recipes will say to add sugar before wrapping them.. personally, I don't like them that way...I like em plain, no sugar, but wrapped. It's a nice way to eat the sweet plantains, but have something to give it structure when you hold them.

here's a picture of Turon.

But my personal favorite is Arroz a la Cubana
