Since I love plantains and they were on sale, I fried them up and seasoned them with "Magma-ne-san Special"'s Cajun spice recipe.

When pan frying, do not put them in all at once. I recommend dividing them into at least three batches. Recipe by Brandy

Platains have a starchy texture similar to sweet potatoes. These taste good seasoned with salt and chili powder, but they go very well with Cajun spice. Have them with beer or wine.

Plantains are "cooking bananas". They are sold in large supermarkets in Japan as well.

This recipe can be used with potatoes, sweet potatoes, or regular bananas, too.
