How to Make Kelewele
Instructions
- Peel the ripe plantains and cut them into bite-sized cubes or slices.
- In a bowl, combine the ground ginger, ground red pepper, ground cloves, and salt to create a spice mix.
- Sprinkle the spice mix over the plantain pieces, ensuring they are evenly coated. You can adjust the spice level to your liking by adding more or less red pepper.
- Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan or deep fryer to about 350°F (180°C).
- Carefully place the seasoned plantain pieces into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them in batches if necessary.
- Fry the plantains until they turn golden brown and crispy, usually for about 5-7 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried plantains from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve your delicious Kelewele hot and enjoy!
