So I came across a recipe for “plantain mosa” a popular Nigerian street
food made with over ripped plantains. With a slight twist omitting the yeast
that makes the mosa puffy, I made plantain fritters instead served and with
prawns smeared in hot chilli sauce . Follow the simple recipe below to try this
delicious fritter. Aprons on!!!
