Ever since the farmer market opened this year , last april , i’ve been buying plantains a lot ! This time , i tried grilling it , since the weather is warming up , and instead of baking it like i did the past few times , i decided to have it grilled . Everybody said that frying it is good but trying to avoid more fatty stuff , we thought grilling is the best . Not only it’s healthier but it’s also brings out the best taste in it . Although this recipe below is not quite the healthiest choice , but if i had to eat it plain , without the glaze or the ice cream , i would not mind it at all .<\/p>\n

So here if grilled plantain with brown sugar , cinnamon and rum glazed , served with our home made vanilla ice cream .<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Grill plantains with skin on , for about 7 minutes on each side on medium low heat . And it should be brown black when it’s done , peel the skin off , coat the plantain with the glaze , and grill for 1 minute on each side . Serve with vanilla ice cream .<\/p>\n

For the glaze : about half stick of butter , melt . Add 1\/4 – 1\/2 c. of brown sugar , 1\/2 tbsp. cinnamon , and 2 capfulls of light rum . Cook for 2 minutes , it should be rolling boil , and it’s done .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
