Ingredients

Tempura Batter

Preparation

Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Bananas

Peel the bananas and cut them into 1-inch thick slices.

2. Make the Tempura Batter

In a bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the cold water, whisking until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

3. Heat the Oil

In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

4. Fry the Bananas

Dunk each banana slice into the tempura batter, allowing any excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered banana slices into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

5. Drain and Serve

Remove the fried bananas from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm, optionally with powdered sugar or honey drizzled on top.
