Fried plantains. 'Tostones'

I make mine in an air fryer and season with Dan-Os or Ms Dash.

What seasonings do you use the most?

I don't even know what "plantains" is. There is a picture of green bananas on the box.

They're a high starch part of the banana family, but taste more like slighty sweet potatoes in my opinion. They're good fried or roasted.

I forgot to turn off my sarcasm filter today. Sorry for the inconvenience, lol.

I need a fact check. Anyone who knows Spanish well enough, is this why they are called tostones.

Tostones etymology AI

To fry in Spanish AI

(The irony of the other comment about internet searches, I am too busy)

I think it’s basically “toasties”.

Makes more sense as toasties.
