Use big bananas! If your bananas are too small or too mushy, they will burn.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 4 bananas
  • 1/2 cup hazelnuts, toasted and finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumb
  • vegetable oil

Sauce

Directions

  1. 1
    Peel the bananas and cut them in half lengthways, then half again, so that you have long strips.
  2. 2
    Mix the hazelnuts and breadcrumbs in a bowl and roll the banana pieces in it.
  3. 3
    Press some of the mixture into the flesh to make sure it is well coated.
  4. 4
    Heat all the sauce ingredients in a small heavy sauce pan, stirring constantly.
  5. 5
    Heat the oil in a wok to 180 degrees Celsius.
  6. 6
    How much oil you use is relevant to how big your wok is.
  7. 7
    Put enough so it will cover the bananas, but never fill it more than halfway.
  8. 8
    Deep fry the bananas in batches for about 2 minutes, or until golden brown.
  9. 9
    Place the fried bananas on a piece of paper towel on a place to let the oil drain.
  10. 10
    To serve, place the bananas on a plate and pour some caramel sauce over top.
