Any masalas of our choice can be used or even plain pepper powder

Method:

1. Pre heat oven to 425 F
2. Peel the skin of the plantain and wash well
   
3. Make thin slices of the plantain and soak it in water with little salt and turmeric powder for 5-8 mins
   
4. Drain the water; wash one again and spread the slices over kitchen towel to remove excess moisture
   
5. In a bowl add oil, required salt and masala powder, mix well
6. Add in the slices and mix gently so that it gets well coated with the spice mixture
   
7. Place it in baking tray and bake in the pre heated oven for 10-15 mins or until its done; Check after 7-8 mins and turn it over to cook the other side as well (I have used my cooling racks so I had not turn it over)
   
8. Remove from the pan and allow to cool
   
9. Serve as snacks or with any rice varieties
   
10. If making for kids, we can omit the chilli powder and can add just plain pepper powder and salt. I have made two batches one with chilly and other with Pepper
