Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup self-raising flour
  • 1/4 cup corn flour
  • 1 tbsp rice flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 180ml water
  • 1½ tbsp oil
  • 5-6 bananas, halved
  • Oil for deep-frying

Method

  1. Combine the various flours, salt and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Pour in water and combine into a batter. Add in oil to mix.
  2. Coat banana halves in batter and deep-fry in hot oil for three to four minutes or until crispy and golden brown.

When we were kids, we always fought for the crispy bits. Now I can have a whole lot of them by myself.
