There’s no better snack than patacones con queso!!⠀ ⠀ In Colombia, frying a patacone is like a work of art, it takes know-how to fry it to that crispy on the outside, soft on the inside perfection. Plus you’ve got to get the flavour right too.⠀ ⠀ Patacones are made from plantain that is first fried in oil until golden brown, then drained and flattened to form a patty before being fried again. You can have a range of toppings or accompaniments with a patacone - it all depends on where you’re eating it - but the usual street side version sees a block of light, fresh cheese topping the warm plantain “toast”. 📍Cartagena, Colombia #leaveyourmark
