Steps

1

Peel out the skin of the bananas. Slice them into thin pieces. (I cut them lengthwise into half and each half into half). Set aside.
2

In a bowl, add flour, rice powder, turmeric powder, powdered sugar, salt, black and white sesame seeds and water. Mix well and make a semi-thick batter. (Thicker than idly batter). Add baking powder and mix well.
3

Heat oil in non stick pan. Oil should be really hot. Dip the sliced bananas in the batter and gently add to the hot oil. Deep fry till golden. Remove from oil and keep aside on a kitchen towel to absorb the extra oil. Serve hot with ginger-cardamom tea.
