In this video above I am going to show you how to make fried plantain the Haitian way. I love fried plantain, I can eat it plain. 

I like my fried plantain to be yellow, when it is dark it does not look appetizing to me. The secret to get that golden color is to add lime juice to the water that you will be soaking the cut plantains. 

The reason we soak the plantain in salt water prior to frying it is not only to get rid of the starch that would give your plantain a dark color, but it also helps to add flavor to the plantain.
