My grandma cut them the plantain in half then she cut them vertically, and she put in the fryer she don't put nothing in it, And be sweet, crusty, and very good! She's Panamanian by the way. But your video its awesome i love plantain

Your grandma sounds like she knew what she was doing. Thank you for your comment.

are there hard areas on them if they are not ripe enough?

do they look and feel like a banana when they are ready to eat?

looks great!

If I remember correctly there some hard spots throughout, but mainly they are soft like a banana that is a little over-ripe. Usually when you buy them in the store (yellow) you need to let them sit about 7-9 days at home before you cook them. Thanks for asking.

Your instructions are too slow. You are overdoing the instruction part.

@psychodelicdragon they're hard and rubbery and starchey inside until the skin ouside goes black. Then the flesh changes from light yellow to a deep orangey colour and is ready to eat. The tougher the flesh the more preparation they need but there are recipes for them like that. There are no hard spots in them. The flesh is the same throughout.

I'm trying to find a preparation for classic Cuban plantains.. they come out sweet, slightly charred with a slight glaze or sauce. Not having much luck.
