    I just made this. Tasted like alcapurrias. I use 3 plantains and 2 whole eggs. I put salt, pepper, adobo, garlic ,green peppers, yellow peppers and onion. I did it all in my food processor. Very easy and very good. Definitely would make this again.

    This has been done. I grew up in this. Most Puerto Ricans grew up on this. We call it Plantain balls. We usually use Plantains and green banana together with herbs and spices, fry them lightly and use them for soup like dumplings.

      You do realize that many Puerto Ricsns have African ancestry. That's why people don't understand the hate. Mexico the majority of their culture is African based too. Yet they too have the same hatred.

    Being from Puerto Rico this is very familiar to me. You must try it in soup or bean stew. Instead of frying it is boiled. Especially in Pigeon Peas stew, it’s a must. We make it both ways, fry or boiled.

    Well hello there Fafa! Peace be with you! I finally tried out your green plantain akarah recipe and those fritters came out fantastic! I used the green olantains in a hurry because I didn’t want them to ripen before I got a chance to try out the recipe! I used my metal mortar and pounder set and pounded the grated green plantain just like you’d did until smooth! I diced a green chili and used 1/2 scotch bonnett pepper and diced everything and added to plantain. I included 1/2 tsp each of baking powder and baking soda and finally one egg yolk. I’m iced everything until well combined. I used my hands to dorm each fritter and dropped them into hot oil and fried 4 minutes on each side. Thank you so much for the recipe. Oh the only change I made were some of the peppers only because of availability as well as amount of my tolerated heat.

    I love the way way you use plantain, We too use it every day, boiled of course, otherwise it would be too fattening, it's one of our daily (for breakfast and lunch or dinner) staples apart from rice. And, this maybe new to you but for us we do something similar and we add cod fish or herring to it or inside and call it "marinade" depending on where you're from. We use plantain in so many different ways. I love your videos, it makes me very happy!

      Thank you for watching. As mentioned one has a fluffy texture (which includes the bicarbonate soda abs Baking powder) m, whilst the original has a denser texture and crunchy exterior. They both taste the same but have different textures. The choice is then left for you to make to suit your personal preference ❤️ Personally I prefer the one without the raising agents 😘
