The most popular Indonesian snacks in my version. Serve it hot and make extra. With this recipe, you always want more!
Ingredients
- 2 very ripe plantains
The batter :
- 40 gr
(1/4 cup) white rice flour
- 25 gr
(3 tbs) all-purpose flour
- 1/4
tsp Salt to taste
- 1/4
tsp baking powder
- Ice
water (cold water) as needed (about 6 tbs to 7 tbs)
Steps
- Heat
enough oil in a pot for deep frying, make sure there are at least 2 inches
of oil, preferably 3 inches.
- While
waiting the oil heats up, peel the bananas. Cut into 3 slices then cut
each slice into 2 lengthwise slices, then cubes them. You can cut in the
way whatever you like though.
- Whisk
together all the batter ingredients in a mixing bowl. The texture should
be thicker than crepes batter but thinner than pancake batter. So adjust
how much water you use. Add more water if the batter seems too thick.
- Once
the oil is hot, coat the bananas with batter and deep-fry until golden
brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Remove
bananas from the oil and drain on a wire rack to remove excess oil. This
fried banana is best when served immediately or if there is some left
over, you can store them in the fridge and when you want to eat them,
reheat in an air fryer in 400°F for a few minutes until they get crispy
again.
