| 1. Peel the plantains. Slice each one lengthwise into 4 equal slices. | 2. In a frying pan, lightly fry the slices on each side until slices are pliable, not brittle. | 3. Remove the slices and drain on paper towels until cool enough to handle. | 4. Form each slice into a ring, with ends overlapping about an inch. Secure with toothpicks. | 5. Stuff each ring with cheddar cheese. Squeeze the cheese together slightly so that it will not fall apart. | 6. In a bowl, mix together the eggs, salt, flour and water. | 7. Cover the open ends of the piononos with the flour and egg mix. | 8. Fry the piononos on each end until it is sealed and golden. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
