In Latin America Plantains are eaten often and are done in many different way. Yellow or ripen plantains are no exception they are done: fried, stemmed, boiled, in casserole, grilled and you name it many other ways. I myself really like yellow plantains and I mostly do them in the oven, different ways but in the oven.
The recipe that we are sharing today can easily be done in the oven or on the grill, procedure is basically the same. Timing may vary depending on the type of equipment.

I love Sweet potatoes, luckily they are very healthy, and a good option for anytime meals. There are endless possibilities with sweet potatoes, the most simple one being raw sweet potato chips, and going on from there.
While yellow potatoes may be the most common potatoes, Sweet Potatoes health benefits far exceed the nutritional value found in white and yellow potatoes. Sweet Potatoes contain almost twice as much fiber, they are rich in vitamins: A, B6, C, D and E, are very high in potassium, contain iron and are a good source of magnesium, why not eat them.

I remember a very long time ago my mom use to make a similar version of this dish, she would make little potato balls and fry them, they where yummy. These days at our house we try to fry as little as possible, and this is how this version came to be.
