Please i have a short question to ask. Is it safe and healthy to eat boiled unripe plantain?? (the green ones) |

I don't see why not. The ones fried and packed as plantain chips are unripe. They don't have toxins which are released during ripening. |

YES They r supposed to be richer in iron content |

@poster: Try this with unripe or half ripe plantain. Slice and put plantain to bake in oven. After baking, take a brush and glaze plantain with honey. very tasty |

Surprisingly as a gal, i prefare unripe plantain 2 d ripe ones. Heard that it contains traces of iron in it, unlike d ripe one which is pure carbohydrate. Again it is higly recommended for diabetic patients, invalds, pregnant women , toldlers and sick patients. So go ahead and enjoy with with fish sauce, fried eggs, fried vegetables and pepper soup. |

Ripe one has high carb content because of the sugars in it. The unripe one can be made into a porridge. It is very tasty if made the right way. |
