Tostones with Garlic Mojo Dipping Sauce Recipe | Alejandra ... image

Crispy twice-fried plantains are a staple throughout many Latin American countries, including Puerto Rico, where my family is from. They're eaten at just about any time of day and in many ways—as a side dish along with entrees like pork or fish, as the base for savory party canapes or even as a salty late-night bar snack with a variety of dipping sauces. Here we serve them with garlic mojo (from the Spanish word "mojar" which means "to wet")—a tangy and spicy condiment made with fresh citrus juice, olive oil, garlic and herbs. Mojo is typically made with sour orange juice from Seville oranges, but as those aren't readily available you can use a mix of lime and regular orange juice to approximate the flavor.

Total Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 4 to 6 servings as an appetizer or side dish

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 large cloves garlic, peeled
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more if needed
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 sprigs fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 sprig fresh cilantro
1/2 cup sour orange (Seville orange) juice or 1/4 cup lime juice plus 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/3 cup olive oil
Vegetable oil, for frying
4 large green plantains
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the mojo: Finely mince or use a rasp grater to grate the garlic into a small bowl or the base of a mortar and pestle. Add the salt and pepper and use a fork or the pestle to mash into a paste. Strip the oregano and cilantro leaves off the stems and add them to the bowl, mashing them into the paste. Whisk in the sour orange juice or equal parts lime and orange juice and the olive oil. Taste and add additional salt if desired. Set aside while you prepare the tostones.
  • For the tostones: Heat 3 inches of vegetable oil in a medium heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven until it reaches 325 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer.
  • While the oil heats, peel the plantains and cut on the bias into 2-inch-thick pieces.
  • Fry the plantains in batches until crisp and pale yellow, about 2 minutes. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper-towel-lined baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining plantains.
  • Move the pot the off the heat (do not discard the oil).
  • Line a cutting board with parchment paper and gather a flat-bottomed glass and small bowl of water. Place a fried plantain on the parchment paper, dip the bottom of the glass in the water and use it to smash the plantain to about 1/2-inch thick. Repeat with the rest of the plantains.
  • Put the oil on the heat again and bring it back up to 325 degrees F. Fry the smashed plantains in batches until golden and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels, season with salt and serve hot with the garlic mojo dipping sauce. 

TOSTONES (TWICE FRIED GREEN PLANTAINS) WITH MAYO-KETCHUP ...



Tostones (Twice Fried Green Plantains) with Mayo-Ketchup ... image

I love plantains and I craved these all the time when I was pregnant. They are great as a side dish or appetizer. After you smash them, but before you fry them the second time, you can put them in a resealable plastic bag and freeze them for later. There's no need to defrost them but be careful when you drop them in the hot oil. You can adjust the mayonnaise to ketchup ratio to your liking and add more or less garlic.

TOSTONES WITH GREEN SAUCE RECIPE | BON APPÉTIT
The double-fried, extra-crispy plantains will never be as good as they are immediately after coming out of the hot oil, but you can hold them in a warm oven if absolutely necessary (as with French fries, the reheated version may not dazzle). The sauce, on the other hand, can be made hours or a day ahead of time to no ill effect.

CRISPY ROASTED TOSTONES WITH GARLIC-LIME MOJO | RECIPES ...
Twice-roasted plantains are served with a fabulous fresh dipping sauce. Make them to serve as an appetizer or a side dish and pair them with rice and beans, roast pork or Cuban grilled chicken. The sauce can be made up to 3 days ahead. Just bring to room temperature before serving. You could even double it and use it as a bright tasting salad dressing later in the week. Look for unripe, green plantains. They’re firm and will yield crispy and chewy tostones whereas the ripe variety will make them turn out mushy. Sprinkle the hot plantains with additional salt, if desired.
