Banana balls (fritters)


What you will need:

In a bowl mix together:

250ml self- raising flour
pinch salt
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons melted butter
5 ml banana essence (optional)
half an egg lightly beaten
Mix together.

Add:

3 large ripe bananas mashed
100 ml milk to make the batter. (You may need to add extra milk, batter should resemble a cake batter that has a dropping consistency but should not be runny)

In a separate bowl mix together castor sugar and cinnamon and keep aside for dipping.

Heat approximately 500ml oil in a small pot on medium- high heat. Using your four fingers take approximately a tablespoon of batter and push off into the hot oil using your thumb so that when you drop the batter it drops in the shape of a ball. Deep fry till golden brown. Remove from oil. While still hot dip in castor sugar/ cinnamon. Enjoy!
