FAT FREE SKILLET HOME FRIES

I love home fries but can't have them on my diet because they are fried. So, when I saw this recipe in the 'Eat Up, Slim Down' cookbook put out by Prevention magazine I wanted to put it here so I had it the next time the mood strikes.

ALMOST FRIED PLANTAINS - VIRTUALLY FAT FREE

This is more a technique than a recipe per se. However, if you love the taste of fried sweet plantains but don't want all the fat, this is the way to go. For those less familiar with plantains, they would best be described as a cooking banana. These pair well with almost and Caribbean entree. For the best results, make sure you have a really ripe plantain one that is all yellow with a good number of brown spots. Though I have portioned this as a half plantain per serving, one could easily eat a whole one alone.

Almost Fried Plantains - Virtually Fat Free image

Steps:

  • Peel plantain and slice 1/4 inch thick on a slight diagonal. This will give you oblong slices that are easy to handle while cooking.
  • Using medium-high heat, pre-heat a non stick skillet.
  • Place plantains in a single layer in the pan. Add water just until it covers the bottom half of the plantains.
  • Reduce heat a small amount and cook 2 or 3 minutes until the water evaporates. Your plantains should begin to have a softer texture and more translucent quality.
  • Lightly spray the tops of the plaintains with cooking spray and turn over. Cook an additional minute or so until you get a lovely, slightly crispy brown exterior on the plantains.
  • Give the tops another quick spray of oil and turn over again. Cook the first side a minute or so until it too has browned a bit.
  • Stop eating the plantains while you're cooking. :-).
  • Serve.

1 ripe plantain, look for one with lots of brown spots
1/4-1/3 cup water
cooking spray

VIRTUALLY FAT FREE FRIES

This is really a basic recipe, you can use whatever you like for seasoning. I use Mrs Dash seasonings, Italian seasonings, Garlic Powder, Cajun seasonings and other times I just make them with a little salt and pepper. This basic recipe contains roughly 0.2 grams of fat and 206 calories per potato.
