For a spicier kick, add a dash of hot sauce to the Mayo Ketchup dipping sauce. Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent for even frying. Don't overcrowd the fryer; fry the plantains in batches to maintain the oil temperature. For a richer flavor, consider using avocado oil for frying. Tostones are best served immediately while they are still hot and crispy.
