Plantain, ripe, fried in rapeseed oil

Plantain is a starchy fruit related to the banana, often cooked before eating. The figures here describe ripe plantain fried in rapeseed oil. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 48g per 100g, including 12g of sugars. It also contains 9.2g of fat and 610mg of potassium per 100g.

Carbohydrate provides energy, while potassium supports normal muscle and nerve function. Frying adds fat, which increases the energy content compared with cooking without added oil. Rapeseed oil contains mainly unsaturated fats. For people monitoring carbohydrate, sugar or energy intake, both the ripeness of the plantain and the cooking method are relevant to its nutritional composition. Full nutritional figures are provided in the tables below.
