Instructions

  1. 1In a medium bowl, add the 1/2 cup rice flour, 1/4 cup tapioca starch, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Pour in the 1/2 cup water.
  2. 2Whisk the ingredients together until the batter is completely smooth and there are no lumps.
  3. 3Peel the 4 ripe bananas. Cut each banana into 2 or 3 pieces.
  4. 4Pour the 1 cup vegetable oil into a 25.4 cm skillet. Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 175°C.
  5. 5Dip each banana piece into the smooth batter, making sure it is fully coated. Let any excess batter drip off.
  6. 6Carefully place the battered banana pieces into the hot oil. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and crispy. You will hear a gentle sizzle as they cook.
  7. 7Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried bananas from the skillet. Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any extra oil.
  8. 8Serve the Chuoi Chien warm.
