MASHED BANANA FRITTERS
It's a popular Malaysian snack that's traditionally deep-fried, but here I am pan-frying it in a smidgen of butter or cooking oil. That works too and it's way healthier. ^_^ Children love it, too, as it's mildly sweet. Great as an afternoon snack with a mug of coffee or tea.

Steps:
- Mix the flours, baking powder, soda, salt and sugar in a bowl.
- Stir it into the mashed banana with a fork. (Add the fourth tbs of flour if mixture is too soft.).
- Heat a frying pan to medium-hot and add enough oil to coat the flat area. (Traditionally, this snack is deep-fried but I find it not all that necessary.).
- Scoop a tablespoon of the banana mixture onto the pan when the oil is heated to medium hot (a soft sizzling sound when the batter touches it). Flatten the batter slightly.
- Fry one side till medium brown and flip over to fry the other side.
- Place cooked fritters on a few layers of kitchen paper. Best served warm but cooled is good, too. :).

FRIED BANANA FRITTERS
This is an old traditional snack in most of Malay families, especially when there are too many ripe bananas at the back yard. We used to eat this for breakfast or evening tea. This is a trial an error recipe. You have to keep on trying to do it until you get the right texture and flavour. Once you master it you can do it with your eyes closed. But, it is worth trying since it is a really nice and tasty snack. The ingredients below are flexible. It's up to individual taste. If you like more bananas you have to add less flour and the fritters will be a softer. If you prefer the fritters to be more rounded and spongy use more flour. Either way the batter must look like cake batter before frying. I prefer more flour.

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas will give your fritters a sweeter flavor and a softer texture.
- Choose the right oil: Vegetable oil or peanut oil are both good choices for frying fritters. Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the fritters, or they will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Fry the fritters in batches so that they have enough room to cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the fritters will steam instead of fry and will become soggy.
- Drain the fritters on paper towels: After frying, drain the fritters on paper towels to remove any excess oil. This will help them stay crispy.
- Serve the fritters warm: Banana fritters are best served warm, when they are crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. You can dust them with powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, or a drizzle of honey before serving.
Conclusion:
Banana fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a quick snack, a dessert, or a party appetizer. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make your own delicious banana fritters at home.
