Pisang Goreng (Banana Fritters) with Rice Flour Batter

Ingredients

• 4 bananas Ripe bananas
• 1 cup Rice flour
• 1/4 cup Tapioca starch
• 2 tbsp Sugar
• 1/4 tsp Salt
• 1/2 cup Water
• 2 cups Oil

Instructions

1. 1Peel the 4 Ripe bananas and cut each banana into half or thirds, depending on your preference for size.
2. 2In a medium bowl, measure and combine the 1 cup Rice flour, 1/4 cup Tapioca starch, 2 tbsp Sugar, and 1/4 tsp Salt. Gradually add the 1/2 cup Water while whisking constantly until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.
3. 3Pour the 2 cups Oil into a large, heavy-bottomed pot or a deep fryer. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
4. 4Take each banana piece and dip it into the smooth batter, turning it to ensure it is completely covered on all sides.
5. 5Carefully place the battered banana pieces into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown and look crispy.
6. 6Using a slotted spoon or spider strainer, remove the golden-brown fritters from the hot oil. Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
7. 7Serve the Pisang Goreng warm.
