Fried Banana
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- 1
Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually whisk in the water until a smooth batter forms.
- 2
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 3
Prepare the Bananas
Peel the bananas and cut them in half lengthwise or into thick slices, depending on your preference.
- 4
Fry the Bananas
Dip each banana piece into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, then carefully place them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
