Cheesy Stuffed Plantain Tots

Grate the green plantains into a large mixing bowl.

Add salt, pepper, and chili powder, and mix to combine.

Wrap one slice of cheese around a hot dog link and cut into fifths.

Take one tablespoon of your plantain mixture and encase one slice of the cheese-wrapped hot dog, shaping into a cylindrical “tot.”

Repeat until all slices are covered and shaped, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze one hour.

In a large pot over medium-high heat, heat your oil to 375ºF (190ºC).

Drop four to five tots into the oil and fry until golden brown, about one to two minutes.

Place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce!

Enjoy!
