1 Heat the oil over medium heat in a large frying pan and add the plantains. 2  The plantains will cook very quickly, make sure to turn them before they burn and cook until golden on each side. 3  You can use a spatula or a fork to turn them. 4  If the plantain flesh is still pink or white it means that it is not yet fully cooked.ield: 5-6 plantains slices per plantain. Easy recipe for fried ripe plantains or platanos maduros fritos, a must-have side dish for so many Latin dishes.
Reduction potential. Reduction potential (also known as redox potential, oxidation / reduction potential, ORP, pE, Îµ, or E h {\displaystyle E_{h}} ) is a measure of the tendency of a chemical species to acquire electrons and thereby be reduced. Reduction potential is measured in volts (V), or millivolts (mV).
How to use an ORP meter. ORP meters have an ORP electrode and a reference electrode. The ORP electrode is designed to either give up electrons to an oxidant or accept electrons from a reductant. These chemical reactions will continue until the electrode develops a potential, caused by the build up in charge, which is equal to the ORP of the solution. The reference electrode is encased in a stable gel.
