Cuban Sandwich w/Fried Plantains


Cuban Sandwich w/Fried Plantains

Thank you Rachael Ray! These fried plantains were great. We found that if we use the mandolin to slice them, we don't need to smash them down before frying. Hot out of the fryer, just sprinkle with a little salt and they are perfect. Don't use green plantains (not ripe) or black plantains (too ripe). They are perfect when they are yellow with black spots, but use them right away because they ripen really fast after that. We used Rachael Ray's pork tenderloin recipe, but built the sandwich from previous “cuban sandwich” tasting experience.
