How to Make Kelyache Kaap (Golden Plantains)

• Cut each plantain in half, then make a lengthwise cut along one side just through the skin.
• Peel off the skin.
• Cut the plantain lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• In a cast-iron or non-stick skillet, heat the oil.
• Meanwhile, toss the plantain slices with the turmeric and chilli powders and salt.
• Place the rava in a plate and dredge each plantain slice in the rava, making sure both sides are well-coated.
• Place in the hot oil, making sure you do not overcrowd the pan.
• Fry each side for about 2-3 minutes on medium-high heat until golden.
