Plantain Chips With Mango Salsa - cooking recipe

Ingredients

For the salsa
2 cups diced mangoes (about 2 medium, in 1/2 inch dice)
1 scallion, thinly sliced
1 serrano chili, minced
3 tablespoons red onions, minced
1/2 cup cilantro
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1 lime, juice of
For the chips
vegetable oil, for frying
2 plantains
kosher salt

Preparation

Combine salsa ingredients in a small bowl. Cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
Carefully remove the peel from the plantains (this is easier if you score the peel with a pairing knife first).
Using a mandolin, thinly slice the plantains on the diagonal (the thinner the plantains are, the crunchier they will be).
Fill a heavy pot with about 1 inch of oil. Heat on med/ high heat to 360 degrees. Carefully add the plantain slices and fry until crisped.
Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. When all of the plantain chips have fried, transfer to a serving plate and serve immediately with the mango salsa.
