Grew up eating these here in Florida. Lots of places to get these from. The ones you get in restaurants don't have butter. Plantains are like bananas in looks. The plantains are much bigger, less sweet, and a bit firmer.

Steps

1

Peel and cut the plantains on a bias. Heat the oil and fry. Turn as needed. Fry till a bit crispy. When the knife goes in easy remove from the oil.
2

Take each piece and smash flat. Return to the hot oil and fry again. Turn as needed. When crisp move to a paper towel to absorb excessive amounts of oil. Salt both sides.
3

Repeat till done. Cut the butter into pats and let melt on top of each one. Serve I hope you enjoy!
