Tatale
Ghanaian Plantain Pancakes
Tatale are savory, slightly sweet pancakes made from overripe plantains, seasoned with onions, peppers, and spices. They are shallow-fried until golden brown and can be enjoyed as a snack, appetizer, or a side dish.
🧂 食材
- 2 large Very ripe plantains(skin should be all black)
- 2 Chiles(finely chopped (e.g., Scotch bonnet or habanero))
- 2 Scallions(chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Red palm oil(for batter, plus more for frying)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cup Self-rising flour
- as needed Oil for frying
👨🍳 步骤
- 1
Peel the ripe plantains. Mash them thoroughly in a large bowl until a smooth paste forms. Using a food processor can make this easier if the plantains aren't extremely overripe.
💡 专业技巧: Overripe plantains with black skin are ideal for sweetness and ease of mashing. - 2
Add the finely chopped chiles, chopped scallions, salt, 1 teaspoon of red palm oil, and the beaten egg to the mashed plantains. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

Gradually add the self-rising flour to the plantain mixture, mixing until a thick batter forms. The consistency should be scoopable but not too runny.
💡 专业技巧: If the batter is too thick, add a tablespoon of water; if too thin, add a bit more flour. - 4
Heat enough oil for shallow frying in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, use a tablespoon to drop spoonfuls of batter into the skillet. Flatten each spoonful slightly with the back of the spoon to form small pancakes.
💡 专业技巧: Maintain medium heat to ensure the pancakes cook through without burning. - 5
Fry the tatale for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip them carefully to ensure even cooking.
- 6
Remove the fried tatale from the skillet and drain them on paper towels. Serve hot.
💡 专业技巧: Tatale can be served with various accompaniments like shito, avocado, or a side of beans.
