    Combining ingredients
  • Frying: Heat the oil over medium-high heat 350 °F [177 °C].
    Scoop two tablespoons of the plantain mixture into the oil, fry 3 or 4 at a time so the oil doesn't get too cool. Once golden brown on one side, flip and fry until golden brown all over.
    Remove from the oil and rest on a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Serve warm.
