Tostones (Twice Fried Green Plantains) With Mayo-Ketchup Dipping Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1 large clove garlic, pressed
- 3 cups canola oil for frying
- 2 green plantains, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
- 1 pinch garlic salt
- Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, and garlic in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Fry plantain chunks until golden but not browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Allow the plantains to cool slightly, then smash each piece of plantain in a tostonero or with the bottom of a clean can. Fry the flattened plantains a second time until golden and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes more. Season with garlic salt.
