“Dodo” (a.k.a. “Fried Plantains”)
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 4 ripe, bright yellow plantains
- 1½ cups of organic, cold pressed, virgin, unrefined, non-GMO avocado or coconut oil
Step 1
Wash the plantains and use a sharp knife to peel open the plantains.
Step 2
One by one, slice each plantain in a crosswise manner, into a medium-sized bowl.
Step 3
Heat up avocado oil or coconut oil in a deep fryer for 3 minutes.
Step 4
Place 10 to 12 plantain slices at a time, turning them every 2 to 3 minutes until they are lightly brown on both sides.
Step 5
Transfer the fried plantains with a sieve onto a paper towel, to absorb the extra oil. Then transfer to a flat dish.
Step 6
Serve with cooked beans or lentils, vegetable stew, jollof rice, soaked cassava flour known as "garri", or simply eat alone as a side dish!
