Ingredients

Measured from the catalog payload.

  • 2 lbs banana peeled

Instructions

10 cooking steps

  1. In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of water, turmeric powder, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Pour cooking oil in a wide pot and heat.
  3. When the oil is hot, slice the bananas using a mandolin slicer and place a batch of sliced bananas in the hot oil.
  4. Deep fry the banana until almost crisp. When the bananas are almost done, scoop a teaspoon of the turmeric mixture and gently add to the oil. Note: Be very careful. This is an optional step. Doing this can add a yellowish color to the banana slices and make it more crisp.
  5. Once the oil stops bubbling, remove the bananas and drain excess oil. Set aside.
  6. Meanwhile, lets make the simple syrup. Heat a saucepan and pour in 1/2 cup of water and 1/2 cup sugar.Let boil.
  7. Gently stir the mixture and turn off the heat. Let cool.
  8. Quickly dip the banana chips in the simple syrup. Drain the excess liquid after dipping.
  9. Once the liquid dries-up, place the banana chips in a container, or serve right away.
  10. Share and enjoy!
