Ingredients

Instructions

In a large frying pan or deep fryer, heat the oil.

In a separate dish mix the grated plantains with the salt and pepper. Taking about a spoonful of the grated mixture, squeeze the water out and make into small patties or pancakes.

Place in the hot oil. Let them cook for a few minutes, turning to ensure all sides are golden brown. Remove from oil and place on a paper towel to blot off any excess oil

Serving Suggestions

Serve on a platter with the horseradish sauce on top and decorated with fresh cilantro or parsley as a snack. Can also garnish with caviar to create a gourmet appetizer.

**Plantains can be purchased in most Latino grocery stores as well as some Asian markets.
