Ingredients
- 2 green plantains
- Oil for brushing
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
- Fresh cilantro and parsley, chopped
- Chives, chopped
- 1 mango, diced
- Juice of 1/2 lemon or lime
- For the dressing: plain yogurt
- Chipotle, to taste
- Mustard
- Balsamic and olive oil
- Paprika, salt and pepper
Instructions
- Peel the plantains and cut them into thick rounds. Toss with a little oil and air fry at 190°C (375°F) for 8 minutes.
- Remove, smash each piece flat, brush with oil and return to the air fryer for 7 more minutes until golden and crisp.
- Whisk the yogurt with chipotle, mustard, a splash of balsamic, olive oil, paprika, salt and pepper.
- Toss the warm plantains with the onion, bell pepper, mango, herbs and citrus juice, then drizzle generously with the dressing and serve right away.
Tip: Serve while the plantains are still warm and crisp — that contrast with the cold mango and dressing is the magic.
