I bought some plantains at the grocery store tonight thinking I might try them. This is a very simple, easy to understand recipe that makes a great side dish or a light dessert. It does work best with a riper plantain.

this recipe is so simple, and the taste is amazing. I didn't use salt, it's not necessary... I recommend you use very riped plantains (their skin looks mostly black
