Tostones (Fried Plantains)


Ingredients
 3 green plantains
 2 cups water
 2 cloves garlic
 2 teaspoons salt
 vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
 Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat with 1-1/2 inch of vegetable oil until hot
enough that the oil sizzles when a plantain is added. Line a plate with paper towels and set
aside.

 Cut plantains diagonally into 1-inch slices, about 10 slices each. Fry the plantains in
batches until tender and just golden, 2 to 3 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined
plate to drain.

 Using a tostonera, press the plantain slices. If you don't have have a tostonera, place a
plantain slice between two sheets of parchment paper and using the back of a wooden spoon
press the plantain.

 In a small bowl, combine water, garlic and salt. Dip the pressed plantains in the salted
water and drop back into the hot oil. Be careful as the oil will splatter. Fry plantains until
golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate to drain then season with salt.
