Grilled Plantain

Frank from Houma

Grilled a little plantain last night. Platano a la plancha para Beli y Pato :laugh:

Have to have one that has turned absolutely black - green will taste more like potatoes. If you buy some greenyuns, just leave them on the counter for a week or more till they turn black.

Sauce:

2 Tbs turbinado sugar
2 Tbs melted butter
1 Tbs lime juice
1 Tbs Dizzy Pig Pineapple Head
1/2 tps cayenne pepper

Mix it all up and baste the plantain

I sliced long ways then halved the plaintain - grilled meat down with the skin on. Pulled the skin and flipped. Grilled half of the plantain longer than the other half just to compare the results.



Blackened version


Both were good - I'll geaux for the blackened version next time
A little rum added to the sauce wouldn't hurt it a bit

I was in the grocery store the other day,My daughter picks up a plantain and asks what it is,I tell her and she says " Dad that would taste good on the egg with that caramel stuff" Here is the stuff.Black Mnoukka(From Rotta winery in Paso Robles)Barreled for 2 years in the sun to give it the intense flavor.



GOOD EATS AND GOOD FRIENDS
