Plantains Recipes

Kelewele are my favorite Ghanaian snack and it is real easy to make.

My Colombian schoolmate made these sweet, caramelly plantains (or Plátanos Calados) and served them in arepas. Traditionally they're eaten with queso fresco as dessert.

This is easy to prepare and tastes delicious. I had never had plantains before trying this and fell in love.

A yummy treat that reminds me of childhood!

A traditional Kenyan Recipe

So good

Found this recipe on Epicurious. I cut back a bit on the fat (less oil and butter), switched leeks with an onion and used FF plain yogurt instead of sour cream. Also used almonds instead of pecans.

It is a hearty dish and you can reduce more calories by eating a smaller portion, but it was very tasty and worth it!!

Delicious as a dessert, a snack, or side dish.

ate these in Puerto Rico on our honeymoon almost every day they were so delicious. I keep trying to find the right recipe to duplicate them... this looks like it will be close!

This recipe works just as well on chicken cutlets

African breakfast special

Use a ripe plantain - completely yellow with some black spots.

Doesn't get any easier than this

I bought some plantains and didn't know what to do with them, so I came up with this. Great for a quick lunch.
