How to make PERFECT COLOMBIAN GREEN PLANTAINS/PATACONES/TOSTONES

Peel off the plantain skin by hand.

Cut the plantains into 5 or 6 pieces, about 2 inches long.

Deep fry the pieces for about 6 to 8 minutes.

Remove the fried plantains with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel.

Press the fried plantains between plastic using a heavy pot or a wooden piece until they are very thin.

Prepare a mixture of water, garlic, and salt.

Soak the pressed plantains in the garlic and salt water for flavor.

Refry the plantains for about 4 to 2 minutes until golden and crispy.
