According to nutrition data, a standard 20-gram slice of fried plantain contains approximately 62 to 68 calories. However, the exact caloric content can vary significantly based on factors like the plantain's ripeness, the amount of oil used, and the slice's thickness, making a one-size-fits-all answer difficult.

One large fried ripe plantain can contain up to 645 calories, a significant increase from its raw form due to the oil absorbed during cooking. The exact calorie count for one whole fried plantain varies depending on its size and ripeness, with green (unripe) plantains having different nutritional profiles than yellow or black (ripe) ones.
