Thai Fried Bananas Ingredients :
- 6 namwa bananas (these are tropical bananas that are smaller). Can also substitute and use 1-2 plantains.
- 3/4 cup Iya Foods Tapioca Flour
- 1/4 cup rice flour
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 3 tsp honey (less if you have super ripe bananas)
- 1 1/2 tbsp white sesame seeds
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup water + more if batter dries up
- Vegetable oil for frying
How to Make Thai Fried Bananas
1
Peel and cut the namwa bananas in half lengthwise. Set aside.
2
Mix tapioca flour and slowly pour water in to form a thick batter.
3
Add shredded coconut, sesame seeds, salt and honey (less if you have very ripe bananas or prefer less sweet). Stir in more water if batter seems dry.
4
Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a pan, enough for the bananas to submerge at least halfway.
5
Dip the bananas on both into the mixture. Fry them on each side until golden and crispy. Be careful not to overcook or burn. Use a slotted spoon to take them out to drain on paper towels.
