Yellow Plantain (each) — sweet, golden Caribbean favourite for frying or baking.

Bring authentic Caribbean flavour to your table with The Black Farmer Yellow Plantain. Naturally sweet and golden when ripe, yellow plantains are a versatile ingredient loved across Caribbean, African, and Latin American cuisines. Unlike bananas, plantains are best cooked — their flavour deepens and caramelises beautifully when fried, baked, or roasted. Whether served as a savoury side, a comforting snack, or part of a hearty stew, yellow plantains add warmth, texture, and a touch of sunshine to any meal.

  • Authentic Caribbean produce
  • Naturally sweet, full-bodied flavour
  • Perfect for frying, baking, or roasting
  • Great side for stews, meats, and curries
  • Versatile across sweet and savoury dishes

Culinary inspiration:
Fry, bake, or roast until golden and caramelised, then serve as a side, snack, or accompaniment to your favourite dishes.

  • Fry slices until golden and serve with salt and pepper
  • Roast whole and pair with jerk chicken or curry goat
  • Mash with butter and lime for a rich side dish
  • Bake with cinnamon for a naturally sweet treat

To Pan Fry: Peel the plantain (slice the tips, make a shallow cut down the skin, and peel it off). Slice it on a diagonal into ½ inch thick pieces. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry slices on each side for 2–3 minutes, until golden brown. To Boil: Peel and cut the plantain into chunks (2–3 pieces). Place in a pot of water (add a pinch of salt if you like). Boil for 15–20 minutes, until tender. Drain and serve. To Roast: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and slice the plantain (lengthwise or rounds). Toss lightly with oil or butter and any spices. Spread on a baking tray (lined with parchment). Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden.

Store at room temperature. Ripen until yellow with black spots for the best flavour.
