Serves: 6 8

Ingredients

5 6 large bananas, halved
1 cup White Star Instant Maize Porridge Original Flavour
1 cup self-raising flour
1 tsp salt
2 eggs, beaten
2 tbsp oil, of choice
2 cups milk
3 - 4 cups oil, for frying
1/3 cup chocolate sauce

Icing sugar, for dusting

Freeze overnight.
Preheat oil in a large pot.
Add the White Star Instant Maize Porridge Original Flavour, flour & salt to a bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, 1 tablespoon oil and milk.
Add the flour to the wet ingredients, in three different stages. Whisk well, making sure to remove any lumps.
Add the batter to a tall glass and dip the bananas into the batter, allow excess to drip off and deep fry.
Fry only a couple at a time to prevent the oil from cooling excessively, this will ensure a crispier finish.

Remove and place on paper towel to drain.
Dust lightly with icing sugar, top some with a drizzle of peanut butter/a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
Serve immediately and ENJOY!!
