Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe plantains
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup fresh cranberries
- 1 cup orange juice
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Peel the ripe plantains and cut them into 1-inch diagonal slices.
Step 2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Place the plantain slices in the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 4
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the fresh cranberries, orange juice, brown sugar, honey, ground cinnamon, salt, and water.
Step 5
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens.
Step 6
Using a spoon or small masher, break down any remaining whole cranberries to create a smoother sauce. Adjust sweetness to taste by adding more honey or sugar if desired.
Step 7
Return the fried plantains to the skillet over low heat. Pour the cranberry sauce over the plantains, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Step 8
Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish or dessert. Enjoy the balance of sweet and tangy flavors!
