Patacon is a delicious Latino dish made from green plantains that are sliced, fried until crispy, and then smashed flat before being twice-fried for a perfect crunch. Originating from countries like Colombia and Venezuela, this savory treat can be topped with a variety of ingredients, such as seasoned meats, fresh vegetables, or creamy guacamole. While they are undeniably tasty, patacones are fried, so enjoy them in moderation. Packed with fiber and potassium from the plantains, they can be a healthier alternative to traditional fried snacks when paired with nutritious toppings. Experience the vibrant flavors of Latin cuisine with every bite of patacon!
