For people with High Blood Pressure , who cannot eat the store bought highly salted potato chips, I came up with this idea.
For this you require, green plaintains. the long sturdy looking ones available at most supermarkets. Buy the ones that are fully green and not by any degree ripening.
Chop both ends of the plaintain. Now with a sharp knife make 1cm vertical slits all along the plaintain. With a deft sleight of the knife get an edge on the peel and take out the thick peel. Get all the plaintains ready this way and keep them soaked in cold water.
Heat oil in a deep fryer or fry pan and you can slice the plaintains straight into the heated oil.with a chip slicer or make slices first and put them in the oil. Make sure you wipe the banana completely before doing so . Fry till they are golden yellow and cooked crisp.
Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon. And drain on paper towels.
Eat them as they are with no salt added or can sprinkle light salt on them. Either way they taste worthy of your effort and no sodium too.
DO PEEL THE BANANA WITH OILED HAND.
