Pisang Goreng (Fried Bananas)

Ingredients

• 4 Ripe Bananas
• 1 cup Rice Flour
• 0.5 cup Tapioca Starch
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Water
• 2 cups Vegetable Oil, for frying

Instructions

1. 1Peel the 4 ripe bananas and cut them into halves or slices.
2. 2In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1 cup of rice flour, 0.5 cup of tapioca starch, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 0.25 teaspoon of salt until well combined.
3. 3Gradually whisk in the 0.75 cup of water until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.
4. 4Pour the 2 cups of vegetable oil into a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5. 5Dip each banana piece into the smooth batter, making sure it is fully coated on all sides.
6. 6Carefully place the battered banana pieces into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the batter is golden brown and crispy.
7. 7Using a slotted spoon or spider strainer, remove the fried bananas from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
8. 8Serve the Pisang Goreng warm.
