Instructions
- All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
Fried Plantain:
- Peel the plantains and chop them into diagonal pieces.
- Heat oil in a deep pan. Put the chopped plantain into a fryer basket and lower into the oil. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes.
- Then take them out and remove excess oil. Take each piece of the fried plantain, smash it with a heavy object like a glass or bowl till it has flattened. Sprinkle some water and salt on each piece, or dip it in a bowl of salted water.
- Place the plantains back into the basket and deep fry again. It should get a nice deep brown coating. Take it out and drain the excess oil.
- Place it in a serving platter.
Fried Malanga:
- Peel and grate the malanga and place in a blender.
- To the blender add some garlic, salt and scotch bonnet pepper.
- Blend it.
- Place in a parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This is because the malanga does have a lot of water and this will help it firm up for frying.
- Now roll the malanga paste into balls.
- Place in a frying basket and deep fry.
- Take it out, drain the excess oil.
- Place along with the fried plantain on the serving platter.
Fried Pork:
- Clean the pork with lemon and water and set aside.
- Marinate the pork in Epis, cloves, thyme, garlic, onion, shallots, scallions, salt, pepper and some sour orange juice for at least 30 minutes.
- Then add the marinated pork to a pan and add 1 cup of water.
- Cover the pan and cook the pork for about 45 minutes.
- Take it off heat and remove just the cooked pieces of pork.
- Place it in the frying basket and deep fry.
- Drain the excess oil and add the serving platter.
- Serve the Simple & Scrumptious Haitian Fritay with traditional pikliz.
