Namaskar. Welcome to nishamadhulika.com
Today we are making banana wafers i.e. crispy banana chips.
Let's start with the procedure of making banana wafers.
We have kept oil in wok to heat.
Add ½ tsp salt to the water and stir to dissolve it completely.
We are done with making the salt mixed water.
Now take a banana and peel the skin.
Remove the green skin completely from the banana.
We have already thoroughly washed the bananas.
Slightly cut off the ends on both sides.
Check if the oil is heated well.
Bring your hand over the wok and you will feel the heat.
For frying the banana wafer we need medium hot oil.
So, the oil is sufficiently hot.
Directly slice the bananas in the wok.
So here we have taken chips cutter, now make slice like this.
You can see that the chips are dropping in the wok and getting fried well.
Make chips from the whole banana at once.
Flip the chips like this with a ladle.
Keep the flame medium.
Chips have fried slightly, now add ½ tsp water into it
and stir them again like this.
The oil has started crackling due to water,
now stir the chips at regular intervals,
and continue frying until the oil comes to normal temperature again.
salt mixedwater is added to reduce the temprature of oil ,
so we get crispy wafers,
As the oil has reached the normal temperature,
take banana chip to check if they have turned crispy.
For this, take a slotted sieve and place the chips over it.
Hold the sieve over the wok,
so that the excess oil drains back to the wok.
Move the sieve like this to remove excess oil,
Place these fried chips over a plate covered
with tissue paper to remove the excess oil.
You can also cut off the chips on a separate plate and then fry them.
If you are feel little inconvenient to place the chips directly
into the wok then you can put them in a plate first.
Now one by one drop the chips into the oil.
We have to prepare rest of the chips like this.
We are cutting these chips very thinly instead of making them thick.
we have used refined oil,
but you can use any other cooking oil as well,
It takes 5 minute to fry the chips at once.
You can also keep this slotted sieve over a plate or bowl.
Meanwhile you are peeling and cutting another banana,
excess oil from the fried chips will drain out in the plate
and then you can transfer them to another plate.
Crispy and super tasty banana wafer are ready.Break the chips like this
Making these chips is really easy, juts keep note of little things.
But while cutting the wafers, you can do it over the wok directly.
But it is much better that you cut them in a plate first
as you won't get any heat on your hands.
Drop the chips one by one in the wok.
Add some water once the chips are little brown and mix well.
When the oil starts crackling due to water,
step aside as small oil drops starts spilling out from the wok.
Keep a little more care about this.
After this when the oil gets to normal temperature,
stir the chips and continue frying.
Take a wafer over the ladle to check if turned crispy
and then drain out the fried chips on a plate.
So, whenever you crave for a quick-instant namkeen
and raw bananas are available at your home
then try making these wafer.
We have mixed some salt to the water
so these wafers are equally salted
but if you need to make them spicier
then sprinkle some more salt, chaat masala or black pepper powder.
