Green vs Ripe Plantain: The Great Debate

UrFavKitchen · July 2026
Green vs ripe plantain

Green plantain or ripe plantain. Pick a side.

Green = crispy, starchy, almost like a potato fry. You slice them thin and fry them hard.

Ripe = sweet, soft, caramelized. The longer they sit, the sweeter they get.

Honestly? Both are correct. Fry can't decide either.

We serve both depending on the drop. What's your pick — sweet or crispy?

Try both sides
