Default Re: Need something to make with ripe plantains...

Yup..they are good when fried. Better yet, go to the oriental store, and buy a spring roll wrap(lumpia wrap). It looks like a egg roll wrap except its very thin. Wrap the half sliced plantains with the spring roll wrap. Then fry them..its crispy and sweet-a-licious. Add an ice cream if you wish.. Delicious.

You can mash it, and mix it with donuts mix or pancake. Then fry it; there's your banana donut.

But most of the time, I don't have time to do fancy cooking, so I just slice a little hole on the banana(this is to keep it from exploding), then I put it in the microwave. Cooked similar as in steam pot or boiled. Taste like cooked sweet potato. Yum.
