Traditional tostones are twice-fried, but we take a lighter air fryer approach to this savoury plantain snack. You’ll need to use green plantains, which taste more savoury-starchy than the sweet ripe yellow ones. The plantains are cut into chunks and air-fried until tender, then smashed and air-fried again to make crispy “chips.” The accompanying garlicky avocado sauce is great for dunking.
