Another way I love making these is with my Air Fryer. My Air Fryer tostones come out quick, extra crispy and no deep frying, just a few spritzes of olive oil for a crispy, delicious appetizer or side dish.,Typically, tostones are served with a sprinkle of salt like chips. Here, I served them as an appetizer with mojo, a pungent dipping sauce made with garlic, cumin, oregano and sour orange juice or a combination of orange and lime juices. You can also eat them with other dipping sauces such as guacamole, ceviche, zesty avocado dressing.,Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls,Jalapeno Popper Nachos,Mexican Layer Dip,Hot Spinach Dip,Shrimp Taquitos
