Green Plaintain Chips

These snacks are natural and extremely easy to make.  I usually whip them up for quick finger food around the house or a small get-together.  

The Green Plantain Chips...

• 5 Plantains, green but full

• Oil for deep frying

• Salt

Peel plantains and cut into wafer thin slices using the thinnest setting on a mandolin.  Lightly salt.  Fry in oil until golden and crisp.  

Nicole's Zesty Sour Cream Dip (for the Plantains)...

• ½ Cup of sour cream

• ½ Cup of mayonnaise

• 1 Tablespoon of lime juice

• Zest of 1 lime (Lime zest is the skin)

• 2 Cloves of crushed garlic

In a small bowl, add the sour cream and mayonnaise.  Take the lime (or 2 limes depending on their size) and grate the skin to create the zest.  Squeeze the limes and crush the garlic.  Add everything in the bowl, mix and enjoy with your green plantain chips!
