Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Place the plantains in a large pot and cover with water.
  2. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender, 15 minutes, then drain and mash.
  3. In a small saucepan over low heat, heat the refried beans and stir in the sugar and salt, mix well then remove from heat.
  4. To make the rellenitos, form a palm-sized amount of mashed plantains into a ball; flatten and place about a teaspoon of the bean mixture in the middle; then mold the sides of the plantain around the beans, making an egg-shaped ball.
  5. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large skillet to 375 degrees F or until a small amount of batter sizzles and browns in the oil.
  6. Fry rellenitos in oil until browned and drain on paper towels.
  7. Enjoy plain, with sugar or with sour cream.
