Instructions:

  1. Prepare the batter
    Begin by placing the all-purpose flour into a bowl. Slowly add water, a little at a time, stirring constantly until a smooth batter forms. The consistency should be thick enough to coat the banana slices without dripping excessively.

  2. Cut the bananas
    Peel the bananas and slice them lengthwise into two halves. You can adjust the thickness based on your preference, but aim for slices that are about 1/2 inch thick for the best frying results.

  3. Coat the bananas
    Dip each banana slice into the prepared batter, ensuring that it is fully coated. You want a nice even coating that will crisp up during frying.

  4. Heat the oil
    In a wok or deep frying pan, heat enough vegetable oil over medium-high heat. You’ll want enough oil for the banana slices to be submerged while frying, so ensure that your pan is deep enough.

  5. Fry the banana slices
    Once the oil is hot, carefully drop each battered banana slice into the oil. Fry in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook the banana slices until they are golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally to ensure even frying on all sides.

  6. Drain and serve
    Remove the fried banana slices from the oil and drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil. Serve them hot with a cup of tea or as a side dish with your favorite meal.


Serving Tips:
For an extra touch, you can sprinkle a little bit of chat masala or chili powder over the banana fries to add some extra spice and flavor. These crispy banana fries make an excellent snack during the afternoon or as a savory side to accompany your main dish.

Enjoy your Banana Fry!
