Plantain Chips

Ingredients:

Large green plantains

Oil for deep fat frying

Salt to taste

Directions:

Peel plantain and grate or shred into thin circles. Heat oil to deep fat frying temperature. Fry heap-fulls of shredded plantain until golden brown. For crisper chips remove plantain when half cooked, heat oil to higher temperature and fry again. The chips get brown and crisp very quickly. Drain on absorbent paper and salt to taste.
