Fried Plantain (Dodo). Use ripe or over-ripe plantains, the latter produces sweeter dodo.
Allow half a plantain to a whole one per person. Wash and remove the skin, and cut into the desired shapes and thickness. Generally, rounds and small cubes are used for garnishes and side dishes; and lengthwise or diagonally for a light main meal. Season with salt and deep fry in vegetable or palm oil. Drain and serve hot.
It may be served as a side dish to rice, beans or yam or on its own with some tomato stew.
Dodo with Nigerian scrambled eggs is also a popular combination for breakfast or a light supper.
