Caramelized Plantains

We usually don't have dessert, but every once in a while I have a craving for something sweet.  The produce market had one yellow plantain so I got it last time I was there. I think the yellowish ones are sweeter than the green ones.

I sauteed the plantain in a little butter when it was brown on one side I turned it over and sprinkled it with some brown sugar and waited for the sugar to caramelize. I served it for dessert with a slice of manchego cheese. The plantain was really sweet and more than satisfied my sweet tooth.
Meanwhile it was 39 F last night and I got out the electric blanket. Yesterday I made a green stained strip stacked pot this time blending green, chartreuse, and blue stains. Thanks for reading and for all your comments.
