1. Cut the tips off the plantains and place in a large pot. Cover with cold water and turn heat to medium-high. Bring to a boil and then turn down to simmer until they are cooked. Depending on how ripened the plantains are, they will take between 10 to 15 minutes. They have to be soft to the touch and the skin will start to split into some of their sides.
2. Remove from pot, drain excess water and let cool until you are able to handle them. Remove their peels.
3. Place plantains in a frying pan and, with the help of a bean or potato masher, mash to form a puree. You can also use the bottom of a heavy glass to perform this step, as it is shown in the picture above.
4. Now, turn the heat to medium-high and add the butter. Stir well, allowing it to melt, then stir in the cream and season with salt. Usually, the texture is more like a paste than a soft puree, but you can add more cream or butter if that is your choice. Once everything has been well mixed and warmed, it is ready to be served. Enjoy!

1. Fill a large pot 3/4 full with water. Slice lengthwise down the peel of each plantain and chop each plantain horizontally into 3 or 4 chunks. No need to peel it now—it’s significantly easier to peel after boiling!
2. Add the plantain chunks to the pot and bring the water to boiling. Boil for 7 to 10 minutes, until the plantains can easily be pierced with a fork.
3. Use a slotted spoon to remove the plantain. Pull the peels off and discard. Put the plantain in a large bowl, add the rest of the ingredients, and mash with a potato masher. Add more liquid (ghee or coconut milk) to get to your desired consistency. Easy. As. Pie.

4. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet.
5. Peel the plantains by trimming the ends, slicing just through the skin down one side, and removing the peel. Cut into angled slices approximately 1-1 1/2" thick.
6. Place the plantains into your skillet close together, but not touching, and cook for about two minutes per side, until they are soft.
7. Reduce the heat to medium low, and cook an additional 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until uniformly golden brown. The color comes from the sugar caramelizing as the plantains cook.
