Sweet Plantains


Sweet as in ripe, not sweet as in made-sweet.

This is the easiest most delicious sweet-savory thing you'll ever make.

2 ripe plantains
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
salt

Remove the plantains from their skins. Slice crosswise into pieces.

In a medium pan over a low flame, heat the oil. Add the plantains. Leave them alone to brown for 3-5 minutes or so. Flip. Repeat.

Sprinkle with salt and serve, for example, alongside (or in) a burrito with black beans, rice, and all your favorite taco fixings.

Serves 2 as a side.
