Chef's Notes
Work quickly while mashing and forming the spheres; if the plantains cool down too much, they become stubborn and refuse to stick together.
Pro Tip
Brush the outside of your finished spheres with a tiny bit of bacon fat and flash them in a hot skillet for two minutes to get an ultra-crispy outer crust.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Failing to drain the boiled plantains properly results in a soggy, sticky green paste that dissolves into mush the moment you try to shape it.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the green plantain break up with the banana? Because it realized it was too tough for emotional baggage and preferred to be boiled into submission.
The Culinary Science
Unripe green plantains are packed with resistant starch, which acts as a prebiotic fiber and resists rapid digestion, keeping you full much longer than regular potatoes.
