COMO HACER PATACONES O TOSTONES COLOMBIANOS. #comidacolombiana

Introduce the recipe and ingredients for patacones.

Use a plantain that is neither too green nor too ripe for the best texture.

Cut the plantain in half lengthwise and then peel it carefully.

Heat vegetable oil in a pan until it is hot enough for frying.

Fry the plantain halves in the hot oil until they are golden brown on both sides.

Remove the fried plantains and let them cool on a paper towel to avoid breaking when flattened.

Place the cooled plantains in a plastic bag between two plates to flatten them.

Press down on the plates to flatten the plantains evenly.

Return the flattened plantains to the hot oil and fry again until they are crispy and golden brown.

Remove the crispy patacones from the oil and let them cool slightly before serving.

Serve the patacones topped with guacamole and julienned pork and beef.
