Ingredients

2 cups oil for frying, or as needed
2 large plantains

Instructions

Heat oil in a large skillet or deep fryer over medium-high heat until it's ready for frying.
Peel the plantains, and slice them into thin, even strips for perfect frying.
Fry the plantain slices in batches until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Place the fried plantains on a plate covered with paper towels to remove excess oil.
