Apr 6 #DIY AIR FRIED PLANTAIN CHIPS 🍌

Krystle Carrissa

WHO DONT LOVE A GOOD SNACK?!

I have been shnackin all day, every day since this quarantine started & I just can’t stop!

What are some of your favorites?

Can you share the recipes with me?

I need more snack options to keep my, very hard to please, self, satisfied!

One of my favorite snacks to munch on that is super easy to make are fried plantain chips 🍌😛

👉🏼 I made mine using my Power XL Airfryer, but don’t worry, for those who don’t own an air fryer - apply the same steps but instead of the air fryer, add a bit of oil of your choosing to a flat pan and fry till golden + crispy!

HERE IS WHAT I USED 👇🏼

• 2 green plantains

• salt

• canola oil spray

• mango achar as a dipping sauce

• air fryer

HERE IS WHAT I DID👇🏼

— I cut my ends off my plantains, cut them in half & sliced the skin off.

— I used whatever 'cheese' grater I could find at the time to slice my plantains into chips.

*use whatever kind of grater you’d like to cut your pieces! I like my plantain chips thin-medium in width.*

— add your salt, bae. 😅

— You want to spray your air fryer basket with a little bit of canola oil to avoid your chips sticking to the basket & spread em out! We don’t want them frying stuck to one another.

— Set your oven to 370 degrees for 15 minutes.

— Add some more salt if you would like.

— Enjoy with a dipping sauce/side! 😋

DIPPING SAUCE -

I decided on some ‘Guyanese’ mango achar or some may know it as Trini kutchela, for my side dipping sauce to give me that little bit of kick, lol🤪.

Mango achar/kutchela is a spicy blend of mangoes, mustard, oil, pepper, masala, etc. I pretty much eat it with any & everything, because it’s just that good. 🥭🌶😛
