Banana Bite Fritters

Ingredients

3 bananas, chopped into bite sized chunks
2 eggs
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup tapioca flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup club soda
Vegetable oil for deep frying
Condensed milk for drizzling

Method

• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Add both flour, baking powder and salt, whisking again until smooth. The batter will be very thick and heavy.
• Finally, add the club soda and whisk gently just until well incorporated and smooth.
• In a wok or medium sized frying pot, heat a few inches of oil on high heat. While waiting for the oil to come up to temperature, begin dipping the banana chunks into the batter. Using a slotted spoon, test the temperature of the oil by carefully dropping a small dollop of the batter into the oil. If the oil is hot enough, the batter should begin to bubble up and lightly brown within a few seconds. Carefully place the battered banana chunks into the oil, leaving enough room in between them to turn over. Fry on each side for just about 1 minute or so until lightly golden brown. Drain on a paper towel lined plate. Repeat as necessary with remaining banana chunks.
• Place bananas on a serving plate. Drizzle with condensed milk before serving.
