Ingredients

Directions

  • Place oil in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Attach a deep-fry thermometer to side of pan, and heat oil to 380 degrees. Carefully drop plantain slices into oil one at a time. Cook in batches until golden brown. Transfer to paper towels with a slotted spoon; let drain while finishing batches. (Adjust heat to keep temperature constant, if necessary, during cooking.) Sprinkle with salt; set aside.

Cook's Notes

If you cut the plantain slices too thin, they could be a choking hazard. To avoid this, cook the slices more like french fries.

Absolutely delicious dip! Used pre-made, bought banana chips (from my local Asian grocery), and made the dip in about 30 seconds while guests were arriving. It was delicious! One of those surprising dips that probably everyone would love, including kids and people who think avocados are "weird."
