Ingredients

Bananas

  • 5 bananas
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 7 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cold water
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons sesame seeds or black sesame seeds

Batter

  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 6 tablespoons cold water (or enough water to make a thin batter)
  • 6 cups oil for deep-frying (or less if desired)

Instructions

  1. Mix together the sugar and water. Set aside.
  2. Beat the egg in a bowl. Add the cornstarch, flour, and water, and blend well.
  3. Cut a banana on the diagonal into 5 pieces. Sprinkle some added flour onto it and coat the pieces in the flour batter using your fingers. Repeat for each banana.
  4. Heat wok and add oil for deep frying. When oil is hot, drop the bananas into the hot oil and add a few pieces at a time, turning them once, until they are golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  5. Heat frying pan and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Quickly re-stir the sugar and water mixture, and add to the frying pan. Stir the mixture over low heat until the sugar dissolves and turns into a syrup. Turn off the heat and add the bananas. Mix carefully and serve immediately. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the bananas just before serving.
