Patacón is a traditional Venezuelan dish made with fried plantains. To make patacón, green plantains are sliced and fried until crispy. The fried plantain slices are then flattened and fried again until they are golden brown and crispy. Patacón can be served as a side dish or as a base for other ingredients. It is often topped with shredded meat, cheese, avocado, or salsa. The combination of the crispy plantains and the flavorful toppings makes patacón a delicious and satisfying dish.
