Ripe plantain slices fried slowly in canola oil until deeply caramelised, then finished with kosher salt.

About Fried Plantain
Maduros are ripe plantain slices fried until their natural sugars caramelise. This profile follows a complete Latin American and Caribbean-style version using black-ripe plantains, canola oil and kosher salt.
The flavour is naturally sweet and gently salty, with a rich fried aroma and deep caramel notes from the very ripe fruit.
The slices are dark golden and lightly crisp at the edges, while the centres stay soft, creamy and almost custard-like.
