Peel 2–3 ripe Kerala bananas (Nendran variety preferred).
Slice them lengthwise into thin pieces.
In a bowl, prepare a batter using maida (all-purpose flour), a pinch of turmeric, sugar, and water.
Mix well to form a smooth, slightly thick batter.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan on medium flame.
Dip each banana slice into the batter, coating evenly.
Carefully drop into hot oil.
Fry until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove and place on tissue paper to absorb excess oil.
Serve hot with tea.
