MADUROS (FRIED SWEET PLANTAINS)
Tender in the middle and crisp at the edges, maduros, or sweet fried plantains, are served as a side dish throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Plantains change color as they ripen: They are firm when green and unripe, then soften as they turn yellow, and eventually, black. Like bananas, plantains develop more sugar as time passes. For the sweetest maduros, use blackened plantains - they have the most sugar, and will yield a more caramelized result. If you can only find yellow ones at the store, buy them in advance and be prepared to wait over a week for them to fully ripen. They're worth it.

Steps:
- Use a paring knife to cut a slit along the length of the plantains, carefully avoiding cutting into the flesh. Remove peels and discard. Slice plantains at an angle crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick pieces (about 12 pieces per plantain).
- In a large skillet, heat about 1/8 inch vegetable oil over medium-high. When the oil shimmers, add half the sliced plantains and fry until golden brown, turning once, 2 to 3 minutes per side. The plantains should be caramelized and slightly crisp at the edges but still tender in the middle.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer maduros to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining sliced plantains. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Heat approximately 1/4 inch of oil, or just enough for plantain slices to be halfway submerged, in a medium skillet over medium heat.
- Cut off the ends of the plantains. Slit the skin of each plantain by running the tip of your knife from one end of the "rib" to the other; peel the skin. Cut at an angle, making slices that are about 3/4-inch thick.
- Brown plantain slices in the hot oil until brown, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-covered plate to drain off excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while still moist.

MADUROS (PLANTAIN)
These are a traditional South American side dish. I serve them alongside a plate full of rice, meat, and boiled salt potatoes. They add a nice sweetness to the meal.

Steps:

- The traditional way is to serve plain, but I like to sprinkle them with a little bit of salt for a nice, salty sweet taste.
