BANANA FRITTERS

I had two very ripe Kerala yellow bananas in my fruit basket just staring back at me. I had to find a way to use it up , else would have to toss it away in a day.Pazhampori  was the most available option. Now that we have all tasted it the traditional way , thought I shall add a twist to this & here we go.................
Ingredients:

2 Large ripe yellow bananas - mashed or grated.
3/4 Cup All purpose flour
2 Tbsps Corn flour
3 Tbsps Sugar
1 1/2 tsps Coconut Milk Powder
A Pinch of Salt
Grated Nutmeg - for mild flavour
Oil for frying

Step 1:  Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl so that the powders blend well with the grated banana.
 Never add water - if the mixture is too thick - let it rest for about 15 minutes and mix again.The mixture would look like this ....

Step 2: Heat oil and drop a teaspoonful one by one. Deep fry them in batches, till they turn golden brown. So when it is done, it looks like this............




They are now ready to serve. Am linking this post to the July 2011 Round up of The Kerala Kitchen as hosted by Magpie. This is my first entry to the group.........Good wishes  to Ria and Magpie.
