INGREDIENTS

1 pc malanga

1 ½ Tbsp.  salt

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

2 cups ice water

1 ½ cup frying oil

DIRECTIONS

1) Peel malanga and cut in “Batons” (2 inch long and 1/4 inch wide sticks). Also can be cut thinner as ‘shoestrings’ or thicker as ‘steak’ cut.

2) Mix ice water with 1 Tbsp. salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder. Rest the cut malanga in water for an hour. This step is optional and can be ignored, or just done for a few hours.

3) Drain malanga to remove as much water as possible.

4) Pre-heat the oil to 375F.

5) Fry malanga for 3-5 minutes depending on the size.

6) Remove from oil and season with salt and enjoy!
