I first discovered plantains while travelling in Africa, and love them - I've never been able to eat regular bananas, so plantains were a revelation.

Had you used them ripe you would have found out that they taste anything but bland, they are very sweet; marinated in spices they take you to heavenPrempehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05029558401221311027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27795456.post-30881042539860464412007-07-01T12:01:00.000+10:002007-07-01T12:01:00.000+10:00Have a great time in Bali - I just got back from a...Have a great time in Bali - I just got back from a holiday there this week.

I was surprised to find they didn't taste as sweet as I expected, but I did like them. Interesting hearing the process for cooking them. I'm always learning new things from you.Kalyn Dennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02499065771517548587noreply@blogger.com
