Traditionally served with a garlic-lime dipping sauce, these twice-fried plantains are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making them a popular choice for gatherings and casual meals. Today, variations can be found across Latin America, showcasing the versatility of this simple yet delicious dish.
