Instructions

DEEP-FRYING BANANAS STEPS

  1. Begin by mixing lime juice and peels in a large bowl of water to prevent banana browning and release their natural ‘juice’.
  2. Peel the bananas and soak them in this mixture.
  3. After soaking for 3 minutes, thinly slice the bananas.
  4. Heat oil in a wok or skillet, adding pandan leaves for aroma. Fry the banana slices, adding them to the pan one by one to prevent sticking. Drain using a colander or transfer to kitchen towels.

SUGAR COATING STEPS

  1. In a pan over medium heat, combine water and sugar.
  2. Stir until the sugar syrup thickens.
  3. Turn off the heat, adding fried banana slices to the syrup. Stir and lift them with a spatula until sugar crystals form. Let the coated chips cool before serving.

Notes

  • Use the nutrition card in this recipe as a guideline.
  • Bananas: The best bananas for deep-frying are 'klauy nam wa', a Thai banana variety. If you're having trouble finding them, try using firm, unripe plantains. It's important to use unripe bananas.
