How to Make Plantains In Coconut Milk
- Peel and slice 2 ripe plantains into 1-inch thick rounds.
- In a heavy saucepan, combine the sliced plantains with 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon and a pinch of salt.
- Pour in 1 cup of coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer over low heat.
- Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the plantains are very tender and the coconut milk is mostly absorbed (about 10-12 minutes).
- If the mixture becomes too thick before the plantains are tender, add more coconut milk, 1/4 cup at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add a squeeze of lime juice for extra brightness (optional).
- Serve hot as a dessert, side dish, or alongside your favorite curry or fish.
