                                Ingredients
- 2 pounds Dominican longaniza [0.9 kilograms]
 - 1½ cup vegetable oil [355 ml]
 
Instructions
1. Cut
- Cut the longaniza into 1½ -inch pieces [7 centimeters].Pat dry with a paper towel, this will help reduce splatter.
 
2. Fry
- Heat the oil in a small saucepan (so the oil level is higher) over medium-high heat (about 375 ºF [190 ºC]. Fry the longaniza until golden brown, about 4 minutes for cured longaniza, 8-10 minutes for raw longaniza, rotating to cook both sides equally.
 
3. Serve
- As you fry them, let them rest on a paper towel to absorb excess grease.Once fried, serve them with tostones and lime. See links to the tostones recipe and serving suggestions above the recipe.
