Once fried, the plantain slices are flattened and fried again until they are extra crispy. Patacones are often served as a side dish with a variety of main courses, such as grilled meats or seafood. They can also be enjoyed on their own as a tasty and satisfying snack. Patacones are loved for their crispy texture and delicious flavor.
