Portion the ripe plantains into medium pieces, similar to how you would for green plantain patacones.

Heat sufficient oil in a skillet until hot.

Fry the plantain pieces until golden brown on one side, then flip them over.

Once fried, drain the plantains well to remove excess oil.

Portion the cheese and bocadillo into sticks.

Flatten the fried plantains using a bag and a plate, as if making patacones.

Place the cheese and bocadillo in the center of the flattened plantain and fold it over, ensuring to close all edges.

Prepare the batter by mixing all-purpose flour, salt, sugar, eggs, and water, along with a bit of achiote color until smooth.

Coat the filled plantains in the batter and fry them in hot oil until golden brown on both sides, ensuring the oil is hot but not too hot to cook the batter properly.

Drain the fried aborrajados on paper towels before serving.
