Plantain Chips

Ingredients
Raw (Green) Plantains
Oil
Salt
Water

Method
Mix salt with water to make a salt solution. Skin the plantains.
Boil the oil in a frying pan. Once the oil is boiling, slice the skinned plantains to about 1/16" thick, directly into the oil.
Control the heat so that the plantains are not burned.
Once the plantains are about half fried (the color starts to change), sprinkle the salt solution into the oil as needed.
Fry the plantains to a crispy stage. Remove the fried plantains from oil and drain them in paper towels.
Once the fried plantains are at room temperature, keep them in closed container.
