2 medium green bananas, peeled and cut into thin slices
•
2 ½ cups chickpea flour
•
1 teaspoon rice flour
•
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
•
½ teaspoon chili powder
•
1 pinch baking soda
•
salt to taste
•
½ cup water, or as needed
•
½ cup oil for frying, or as needed
Instructions
Peel bananas and cut into thin slices. Soak in a bowl of salted water for 5 to 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix chickpea flour, rice flour, turmeric, chili powder, salt, and baking soda in a bowl. Add enough water to moisten the mixture; the batter should be neither too thick nor too runny in consistency. Keep stirring the batter to prevent lumps.
Heat a generous amount of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
Drain banana slices and pat dry with paper towels. Dip in batter and place in the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
