Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to fan assisted 170C / 190C / 375F / gas 5.
  2. Make a lengthways slit along the plantains leaving at least 5cm at each end so they stay whole during baking.
  3. Brush the plantains with some oil, place them on a lightly oiled, lined baking tray and bake for 40 mins making sure to turn them half way through.
  4. Remove plantains from the oven, place them slit side up and stuff them with the cheddar cheese.
  5. Return stuffed plantain to the oven and bake for about 5 mins or until the cheese is melted.
  6. Serve plantains warm drizzled with chilli sauce.

Notes

  • Serves 3 as a side. Serve 2 per person to make it a main dish. Feel free to add bacon.
