Ingredients

  • sliced plantains (ripe) – 300g

  • pistachios (chopped) – 50g
  • fresh basil leaves – 20g

Kitchen Tools

  • oven

  • knife
  • cutting board

Preparation

To begin, preheat your oven to 180°C. Place the sliced plantains on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes until they are slightly caramelized. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.

Next, crumble the goat cheese over the warm plantains and drizzle with honey. Sprinkle with chopped pistachios and torn basil leaves for a burst of freshness.

Serving

Transfer the plantains to a serving platter and enjoy this unique combination of sweet, savory, and crunchy flavors. This dish is best served warm to fully experience the contrasting textures and tastes.

Tips

For an extra special touch, drizzle some balsamic glaze over the finished dish before serving. The acidity of the balsamic will complement the sweetness of the honey and the creaminess of the goat cheese perfectly.
