Can you use corn oil to fry plantains?

Yes, you can use corn oil to fry plantains. Corn oil is a neutral-flavored oil that can withstand high temperatures, making it a good choice for frying. Here are some tips for frying plantains in corn oil:

- Choose firm, ripe plantains. Unripe plantains will be hard and difficult to fry, while overripe plantains will be mushy.

- Peel the plantains and cut them into 1-inch thick slices.

- Heat the corn oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

- Working in batches, add the plantain slices to the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the plantains are tender and golden brown.

- Remove the fried plantains from the oil and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

- Season the plantains with salt and pepper, or your favorite seasonings, and serve immediately.
