You possibly will not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a eating plan which includes fried ripe plantains but it is possible. It is crucial to not eat fried ripe plantains or other high calorie vegetables every day but in moderation.

For instance, I allow myself moderately high calorie food one meal per week. I eat a low calorie diet for 6 days of the week, say 1500 to 2000 calories a day, and then on the last day, I eat whatever I want – within moderation of course.

I have been using this method for the last few weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise routine or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have only been careful of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I feel like one day a week.

I also think it makes things easier if you have a little support when on a weight loss program and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have several tools to help you monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Fried Ripe Plantains (Pl?tanos Maduras Fritos ? Puerto Rico)

4 medium very ripe (nearly all black) plantains
4 tablespoons butter, divided
Salt or garlic salt, to taste (optional)
2 limes, cut into wedges (optional)

Peel plantains as you would a banana, then cut them on the diagonal into 3/4-inch slices. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Saut? half the plantain slices in a single layer until they are quite brown on the underside, about 4 minutes. Flip them over with a spatula and saut? until brown on the other side, about 3 minutes. Leaning the slices against each other if necessary, stand each plantain slice on one of its edges in the skillet and saut? for 30 seconds. Next stand the slices on their opposite edges and saut? an additional 30 seconds.

Remove one slice from the skillet, cut it in half, and check to see that the plantain has lost its pale yellow, white, or pink tinge and has turned yellow all the way through. If so, the plantains are ready. If not, continue saut?ing them for another minute on the sides that are the least brown.

Gently remove fried plantains from the skillet with a spatula and pace them on paper towels to drain. Add remaining butter to the skillet and saut? remaining plantains in the same fashion. Arrange fried plantains in one layer on a large serving plate. Sprinkle them with salt or garlic salt, if desired, and serve at once with lime wedges or plain.

Serves 6 to 8 as a side dish or appetizer.
