I would give this recipe a 3 out of 5 stars. It was easy to make, but the plantains were a bit bland.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. I've had better twice-cooked plantains before.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my plantains didn't turn out crispy at all. They were more like mush.

The plantains were a bit dry. I think I should have cooked them for a shorter amount of time.

These plantains were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

These twice-cooked plantains were a hit! I made them last night as a side dish for grilled chicken, and they were so good that everyone went back for seconds.
