Honduran Fried Plantains

==Description==
==Ingredients==
*black, or ripened plantain
*1/4" corn or soybean oil
==Directions==
#Cut the banana in half. Don't peel yet.
#Cut each 1/2 lengthwise. You now have quartered the plantain into four equal, narrow, relatively flat pieces.
#Now peel the plantain, more by pulling it off with your knife than peeling per se.
#Heat 1/4" corn or soybean oil in a pan.
#Put the plantain in the oil when the oil has reached a medium-high temperature. If oil smokes, turn it down.
#Turn the plantain when the natural sugars in the fruit begin to carmelize (just starting to turn brown) - about 6 minutes
#Fry the other side - about 5 minutes
#Place fried plantains on paper towels to remove extra oil
