delicious if you like to see how I made this keep watching and don't forget to click the like button so let's get started for my list of ingredients I've got for our ripe plantains which has been properly washed up got 1 red bell pepper 1 red onion 2 spring onions which is totally optional 1 scotch bonnet pepper 3 garlic cloves if you are not a fan of garlic please you can commit it but I love the taste of garlic 1 light egg and some salt to taste so let's get started to begin our start by filling and cutting the plantains into little cubes to enable the blending process and I'll be blending them with my blender or however you can also use a food processor and like I said earlier the plantains has been properly washed so please make sure you give us a good wash [Music] [Music] [Music] okay so I'll be cutting them into little cubes just like so that way it will be easier for my blender to blend [Music] [Music] I'm don't believe the plantains so the next step is to trow the scotch bonnet pepper and garlic into the blender and I'll be blending with the spring onion whites so like I said earlier the spring onion is totally optional so you can either use the ripe onion or the regular white onion so at this point our chop of the spring onion green are set aside [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] the next step is to chop up the red onion and the bell pepper I'm going to be throwing half of the red onion into the oil during the frying process it is totally optional but it does add a lot of onion flavor to the plantain tankara [Music] so now I'm going to be chopping the bell pepper and I'll be using just half I always like to chop in bell pepper into the butter instead of scotch bonnet pepper because I don't want my kids to bite into pepper [Music] [Music] okay so I'll set these aside and then we proceed to the next step all right so at this point we are ready to blame and I'm going to be adding a little bit of water to help the place of my blender and remember this is a car so don't add in too much water just add a little bit of water just as you would add to your beans when making a curry and trust me you really need us water to get the plates of your blender movie so at this point my blender was struggling I had to use my wooden spoon to push down the plantain a little bit because I don't want to add in more water I'm going to continue the blending process until it is nice and smooth okay guys so at this point I think it is smooth and we are done blending and this is the consistency we get after blending so I'm just going to be pouring this into a bowl [Music] [Music] so I added a little bit of water to rinse out the leftover in the blender [Music] so next time add in one large egg cause plantain is a bit heavier than beans and this egg will make the occur up to be fluffy and lights next add some salt to tastes so at this point I'll beat the plantain butter to incorporate some air and I'll be using my hand mixer you can also use something like saw or a wooden spoon so manually it should take about five to seven minutes but with my hand mixer it would take just two minutes alright so the bidding process is over and as you can see it has doubled in size and it looks so fluffy okay so I have already started preheating my oil so to that outro in the half onion I reserved earlier and why that is preheating I'll move back to my plantain butter hour add in my peppers onion and the spring onion green [Music] so the next step is to mix this wall and we are ready to fry our green plantain Oh Cara like I can't wait to eat the Sakura [Music] at this point my oil is well heated up the onion flavor has infused into the oil so I'm going to take out the onion and I'll reserve it for witness I'm making my stew so I'll just blend it along with my tomatoes [Music] I'll be scooping the butter with an ice cream scooper and you can also use a normal spoon a wooden spoon or your cooking spoon and we are going to be frying this on a medium heat for about five to seven minutes on each side or until it is golden brown okay so after seven minutes they are ready on one side I'll flip to the other side and let them fry as well [Music] the false badge is ready so I'm going to be placing them on a paper towel to absorb the excess oil and then I will repeat the same process [Music] my oil is nice and clean so I'm just going to scoop in the last part and we will be done so there you have it guys our green plantain Ark arrived these tasted so delicious and it tasted exactly like a carafe you all need to give this recipe a try you can have this on its own you can have it with your pub with your custard or with your braids and I hope you all enjoyed this recipe if you liked the video please be sure to click the like button
