Recipe: plantain chips and dips

USUALLY AT this time of the year, we’d be looking forward to a Bank Holiday that would bring with it Notting Hill Carnival on the streets of west London.

Unfortunately, due to the pandemic the carnival won’t be going ahead in its traditional manner. So, I have created carnival-inspired recipes for you to try at home for the month of August – let’s keep that carnival spirit going!

To kick it all off, here’s the first one: plantain chips and dips! Lots of us like a cheeky beverage and something to nibble and this is suitable for the party-snack vibes.

Each of these elements are really easy to make and can be enjoyed all year round. They can also be good accompaniments to other dishes.

Also, if you don’t have any plantain these dips are brilliant with crisps, tortilla chips and bread.

  1. On a chopping board remove the plantain skin and cut into thin slices.
  2. In a frying pan add a generous serving of vegetable oil so that the plantain is completely covered when cooking.
  3. Fry on a medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes (or until golden brown) stirring the plantains occasionally.
  4. Once taken off the heat leave on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil (before transferring to serving dish) and season with a pinch of salt.
