Patacones, also known as tostones, are a beloved Venezuelan snack or side dish. They are made from green plantains that are sliced, fried, and then flattened. The flattened plantains are fried again until crispy and golden brown. Patacones are typically served with a dipping sauce such as guasacaca, a Venezuelan avocado sauce. They are crunchy, savory, and addictive.
