Fried Banana Fries Dessert Recipe
Ingredients 4 firm and ripe bananas, cut horizontally and vertically in half 2 tablespoons of lemon juice Frying oil
Dough to Dip In 1 cup of flour 1 teaspoon of baking powder 1 lightly whipped egg ½ cup of a milk 2 tablespoons of sugar 1 egg white
Caramel ½ cup of sugar ½ cup of water ½ cup of thick cream 2 teaspoons of Scotch or Brandy (optional)
Preparation
- Dough: Place the sifted flour with the baking powder in a bowl, and make a hole in the center. Stir the milk, egg and sugar together, and mix with the sifted flour until you obtain smooth dough. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Caramel: Place the water and sugar in a small pot, and cook at a low flame, mixing constantly until the sugar dissolves. Let it boil on a low flame for about 5 minutes without stirring or until the mixture caramels.
- Remove the caramel from the fire and carefully mix it with the cream and liquor (if you use it). Return the pot to a low flame and stir until the ingredients mix well. Withdraw and let it cool.
- Whip the egg whites till they harden and mix with the dough with soft circular movements. Heat enough oil in a thick pan; then grease the banana with the lemon juice and dip them into the dough, let the extras drip off and fry them for 2-3 minutes or until they turn brown. Let napkins absorb the oil from them and serve the fried banana immediately bathed in the caramel.
