Ahayoe / Gratéd Fried Plantains

Ahayaoe?! (Me, I sometimes have trouble with pronunciation ... 😅) is simply a mixture of plantains (cut very finely) and onion which is then fried until a fairly crunchy texture is obtained. But you can also remove them immediately, when it starts to brown for a softer version.
Preparation time 10 minutes
Cooking time for 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 Ripe plantains
  • 1 Onion
  • Frying oil
  • 1/2 TSP SEL

Instructions

  • Prepare your ingredients. Plantains must be ripe
  • On a board, peel and cut the plantains.
  • Here, I used a knife .. but you can also use a mandolin to chop.
  • Then chop the onion.
  • and add salt
  • Mix everything together. Meanwhile, you can put the frying oil on the fire.
  • Once the oil is hot, pour your mixture. And fry until a golden coloring is obtained. Do not necessarily wait until the plantains are completely brown before withdrawing them. Because when removing them, you will have to directly put in the small bowls, the frying continues by brown even off the heat.
  • Press with a spoon so that the deposit assembles.
  • Let stand for 5-10 minutes and serve them. Do not hesitate to use absorbent paper to absorb the excess oil when serving.
