Fried rose banana

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Egg
2 tablespoons Flour
2 tablespoons Cornstarch
2 Ripe; firm bananas, each cut into 6 pieces
1½ cup Plus
1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
1 cup Sugar
1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

In a small bowl, mix the egg, flour, cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon water until a smooth paste is formed. Thoroughly coat each banana piece with the paste. Heat 1-½ cups oil in a wok or heavy-bottomed pan and deep-fry the coated banana pieces until golden brown. Remove and drain. In a separate saucepan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add the sugar and stir over moderately high heat until the sugar melts and becomes golden colored. Add the deep-fried banana pieces and toss lightly. Sprinkle the sesame seeds over all. Before serving, briefly dip the hot banana pieces, coated with the syrup, into ice water. The water will harden the sugar and make it crisp. Serve immediately.
