Ingredients
- 1 large green plantain (ends trimmed and peeled (6 oz after))
- olive oil spray (I like Bertolli)
- 1 cup water
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Steps
-
With a sharp knife cut a slit along the length of the plantain skin, this will make it easier to peel. Cut the plantain into 1 inch pieces, 8 total.
-
In a small bowl combine the water with salt and garlic powder.
-
Preheat the air fryer to 400F.
-
When ready, spritz the plantain with olive oil and cook 6 minutes, you might have to do this in 2 batches.
-
Remove from the air fryer and while they are hot mash them with a tostonera or the bottom of a jar or measuring cup to flatten.
-
Dip them in the seasoned water and set aside.
-
Preheat the air fryer to 400F once again and cook, in batches 5 minutes on each side, spraying both sides of the plantains with olive oil.
-
When done, give them another spritz of oil and season with salt. Eat right away.
