In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of banana batter mix, 1/2 cup of rice flour, 1/3 cup of all purpose flour, 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar, and 1 can (400 ml) of coconut milk, then whisk thoroughly until there are no clumps and the batter is thick.

Watch out

Do not use coconut cream instead of coconut milk because coconut cream is thicker and sweeter, which will throw off the batter consistency.

Hold the knife securely and cut away from your fingers to prevent cuts when slicing bananas.

Peel 10 medium size bananas and slice each banana lengthwise into 4 to 5 slices on a cutting board.

warningStay safe

Be careful around hot oil; ensure the wok is stable on the burner to prevent spills.

Heat 500 ml of vegetable oil in a wok on medium heat to about 1 to 1.5 inches deep, and test the oil temperature with a bamboo stick until it starts to bubble.

Make sure the oil is hot enough before testing with a chopstick, otherwise the batter will absorb too much oil and become soggy.

warningStay safe

Hot oil splatters can cause severe burns; lower coated bananas gently into the oil using chopsticks.

Dip each banana slice into the batter to coat it completely, then slowly place the coated banana slices into the hot oil and fry in batches until they turn golden brown and crispy.
