Foot-long Plantain Banana Deep-Fry

Fourth Aunt came to the house, bearing a foot-long plantain banana or Pisang Tanduk.

Huge! 30cm long and firm.

Fourth Aunt said that she could not resist buying the plantain banana when she saw it at the market. Mom normally steams the banana at home as it's healthier .... but Fourth Aunt urged her to deep-fry it. It was such a good quality fruit and it seemed that it would be wasted if steamed. So Mom listened to Fourth Aunt ...

The banana yielded 16 thick slices

Mom coated each slice with flour batter and deep-fried them in oil ....

The bananas turned really soft when cooked and melted in the mouth. Loved them. These deep-fried plantain bananas were really great for tea!
