Fried plantain

Okay kiddo, have you ever eaten a banana? Fried plantains are kind of like bananas, but they're bigger and you cook them in a special way.

First, you have to choose a plantain that's just right. It needs to be yellow with black spots on the skin, this means it's ripe and ready to eat. If it's green, it's not ripe enough and if it's completely black, then it's overripe.

Next, you peel off the skin and cut the plantain into slices. They look like little circles. These slices are then fried in hot oil until they turn golden brown and crispy.

Once they're ready, you can sprinkle some salt on top to add flavor or even dip them in some sauce if you like. Some people even make sweet versions by adding honey or sugar on top!

Now you have delicious fried plantains, you can enjoy them as a snack or as a side dish with your meal. Yum!
