Garlic Plantains

1. 1

   Combine water, garlic, and salt in a medium size bowl and set aside.

2. 2

   In a large saute pan, heat oil to 325u00b0F.

3. 3

   Peel plantains and slice into 1-inch pieces. Carefully add plantains to oil and fry until golden yellow in color, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side.

4. 4

   With a slotted spoon, remove the plantains from the pan and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. With the back of a wide, wooden spatula or spoon, press each piece of plantain down to half its original size.

   Place the plantains in the garlic water and let soak for 1 minute. Remove and pat dry with a tea towel to remove excess water.

6. 6

   Bring oil back up to 325u00b0F and return plantains to pan and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 to 4 minutes per side.

7. 7

   Remove to dish lined with paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Serve immediately.
