When I create an a-plane and assign an attribute color="red", the color is applied to one side only. I added rotation animation to the plane and the back of the plane is white: fiddle.

What would be the method to get a plane colored from both sides? Should I create 2 planes of same color and then rotate one so that they are back to back and to the user looks like a single plane?

There is a material property called side. If you set it to double, the material will be applied both to front and back

<a-entity material="side: double"></a-entity>

snippet: 

<script src="https://aframe.io/releases/1.4.0/aframe.min.js"></script>
<a-scene>
  <a-plane position="0 0 -4" width="4" height="4" 
           color="#7BC8A4" material="side: double"
           animation="property: rotation; to: 360 0 0; loop: true; dur: 2500">
  </a-plane>
</a-scene>
