LouDiamond 1 #2 May 21, 2006 Cut it up into small circles(same as slicing a banana) and then smash them. Fry them up until they turn yellow brown and become crisp. Lightly salt and eat while warm."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swedishcelt 0 #3 May 21, 2006 What kind of oil or grease do you use? Do you keep the mashed circles separate when frying or one big mashy thingy? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

labrys 0 #5 May 21, 2006 Make a shrimp curry. Slice and fry the plantains in butter like you would slices of potato. Eat the curry over rice with the plantains on top along with green onions and chutney and toasted coconut. Sometimes I add chopped peanuts. Awesome.Owned by Remi #?

You can mash it into one big pancake looking shape and fry it that way as well."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She had just returned from Costa Rica, where she served as a student missionary. She was 18. I was 8. It is something that I remember as being very good to eat. -Must- have been good for me to remember it all these years later! ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lightly salt and eat while warm. Uh-Uh. Let them sit on the counter in a paper bag until they're tremendously over-ripened. Like bananas for banana bread ripe. Like when they look like they're about to break open and reveal an alien life form they're ready. THEN slice them up and fry them until they're dark brown, and eat them on the side of something salty like a steak, or the sweetness will kill you. You have discovered the Miracle Fruit. When they're yellow, they come out starchy like a tuber, and when they're ripe they taste like dessert.OrFunV/LocoBoca Rodriguez/Sonic Grieco/Muff Brother #4411 -"and ladies....messin with Robbie is venturing into territory you cant even imagine!-cuz Robbie is Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
