cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: cottage cheese

Low-fat cheese reduces calories while maintaining flavor.

vegetable oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is often less expensive and works well for frying.

Peel the ripe plantains.

Slice the plantains into several portions, about 5 or 6 depending on size.

In a mixing bowl, measure and add 4 tablespoons of flour.

Add 2 eggs to the flour.

Pour in 2 tablespoons of milk.

Add 2 tablespoons of sugar and a pinch of salt.

Mix the ingredients until well combined and set aside.

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, ensuring it's not too hot.

Fry the plantain portions for about 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown.

Remove the fried plantains and let them cool slightly.

Mash the fried plantains using a plate or a pestle until smooth.

Take a portion of the mashed plantain and place a piece of cheese bocadillo in the center.

Form the plantain mixture around the cheese into a patty.

Return the filled plantains to the hot oil and fry for no more than 2 minutes until golden brown.

Carefully monitor the heat to prevent burning.

Once fried, remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
