See all
½ small yellow onion, finely grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ tsp ground turmeric
¼ tsp ground ginger
¾ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
3 tbsp coconut oil, divided

For serving

2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Trim the ends off the plantains and score the skin lengthwise with a knife. Peel away the skin — green plantains can be stiff, so use your fingers to pry the skin off in sections.
2
Grate the plantains on the large holes of a box grater (or use the shredding disc of a food processor) into a large bowl. Add the grated onion, minced garlic, turmeric, ginger, and salt, and toss until evenly combined.
