Tempura Recipe #2 |
Banana Tempura |
Thank you to my other half for suggesting this recipe. We were making a batch of vegetable tempura and had some batter left, when he told me how much he loved banana fritters.
So here's a modern take on an old idea. Ideal if you've got some spare bananas that are going slightly brown! |
 |
Ingredients |
100g plain flour
Pinch of salt
150ml cold water
2 bananas
Oil for deep frying |
|
| |
Method |
- Mix the egg and the water together.
- Mix in the salt and the flour. Use a whisk to remove any big lumps, but don't worry about smaller lumps.
- Heat the oil in a wok or deep fat fryer until it reaches 180 degrees C.
- Peel the bananas and cut them in half.
- Dip each piece in the batter and then immediately put in the wok.
- Cook for 2 minutes, then turn. Continue to cook until the batter is lightly browned.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the tempura from the wok and drain on kitchen paper. Keep warm in the oven (about 100 degrees C) until all the vegetables are finished.
Serve with blackberry & apple syrup - delicious!
