This classic vegan side dish celebrates the natural sweetness of ripe plantains. Platanos maduros are a staple in Caribbean and Latin American cuisine, loved for their caramelised edges and soft, tender centres. The key to success lies in the ripeness of the fruit; look for plantains with heavily spotted yellow or even completely black skins. This indicates the starches have converted to sugar, ensuring a rich and jammy flavour once they hit the frying pan.
Quick to prepare and naturally gluten-free, these sweet plantains make an excellent accompaniment to savoury black beans and rice or spicy jerk dishes. While traditionally served as a savoury side, their honey-like sweetness makes them a versatile addition to any plant-based repertoire. Serve them immediately while hot to enjoy the contrast between the crisp exterior and the meltingly soft middle.

Ingredients for Platanos Maduros
3 to 4 ripe (heavily spotted yellow to brown) or very ripe (brown to black) plantains
80 to 120ml olive or canola oil for sautéing
How to make Platanos Maduros
Cut ends from plantains and peel fruit. Diagonally cut plantains into 1/2-inch-thick slices. In a large nonstick skillet heat 80ml oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté plantains in batches, without crowding, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes on each side, adding more oil to skillet as necessary. With a spatula transfer plantains as sautéed to paper towels to drain and season with salt if desired.
Serve plantains immediately.
