Slice the plantains on the diagonal, about 1/2-3/4 inch thick.

Shallow fry the plantains on both sides until lightly golden brown.

While the plantains are still warm, place between a sheet of Gefen Parchment Paper and press down firmly with a plate to flatten.

Return the flattened plantains to the oil and fry a second time until crisp and golden. Sprinkle with salt and a squeeze of lime (optional) before serving.
