Fried bananas / Goreng pisang

Of course the easiest recipe is to get a a packet of adabi flour for goreng pisang. Lacking that, try the recipe below:

100gm wheat flour
50gm cornstarch / Stärke
2 tbsp rice flour (optional)
a pinch of salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence / Vanillinzucker
150ml water
About 8 peeled sweet bananas (Chiquita bananas do very well when the tips of their peel are still slightly green)
Enough oil for deep frying

If you do not have rice flour, remember to add 2 tablespoons wheat flour to the ingredients.

Work all the ingredients except the bananas into a smooth batter. Let stand for 5 minutes. Heat oil in a pan for deep frying. Dip the bananas in the batter, make sure they are well-coated, and fry them in the hot oil until golden brown.
