Chek Chien Fried Banana Nuggets Recipes

Steps:

• Cut each spring roll wrapper in half.
• Brush the piece of wrapper with water to soften it, place a piece of banana at one end and roll it up just like you were rolling a spring roll - don't worry about making it too neat.
• Continue with all the rest of the banana pieces and wrappers.
• Heat a lot of oil in a wok, pan or deep fryer.
• Take a small square of the wrappers or a cube of bread to test if the oil is hot enough - if the oil fizzles around it and it crisps up quickly then the oil is hot enough.
• Deep fry the wrapped bananas in the hot oil for about 4-5 minutes or until they're browned slightly. Remove and drain on paper towel.
• Roll them in the icing sugar and eat them immediately while they're nice and hot.
• VARIATIONS:.
• Here are some variations that the author has tried and loved:.
• Add a small chunk of dark chocolate with the piece of banana.
• Or add a slice of cream cheese with the piece of banana (it goes all melty and yummy).

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix banana pieces with sugar and vanilla.
• Wrap each banana piece in half a spring roll wrapper. Dip fingertip into water and seal ends. Set aside.

• Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
• Place a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the center of dessert plate. Surround it with 6 fried banana pieces.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Peel banana and cut in half lengthwise.
• Heat butter in a non stick skillet until slightly bubbly but not brown.
• Place banana halves in the hot butter and fry for about two minutes, then carefully turn and fry other side for about two minutes, too.
• The banana halves should be slightly browned, so fry a little longer if they aren't browned after those 2x2 minutes.
• Serve hot, sprinkle with some cinnamon if you wish (I never did).

Steps:

• Peel and flatten with the banana with a smooth flat surface such as the side of a large knife or other flat surface. Chuoi Chien Vietnamese Fried Bananas Tuesday, April 6, 2010 | 44 comments » Chuoi chien (Fried Banana) was our dessert for Easter lunch. Crispy on the outside but warm, sweet, and fragrant on the inside-it's no wonder this is a really common street snack in Vietnam. Made from a variety of small and short bananas known as chuoi xiem (also chuoi su) in Vietnam, it's also called bananito, mazana, or ladyfinger bananas and has a much sweeter taste and more fragrant smell than your common banana. When ripe, the peel actually turns black. But you'll be mistaken to think that it's rotten-these bananas are some of the sweetest and fragrant bananas you'll ever taste.While buying our bananas, a 7.2 earthquake hit Baja California, hundreds of miles from LA, but I was totally oblivious to the grounds around me shaking and suddenly found myself the only one in the small fruit market with my bag of bananas as everyone ran out to the streets. Now you know the dangers we go through to put this post together. This is Kim in her Easter Sunday best and this what the chuoi xiem looks like. The blacker the peel, the better-in fact, ours could use another day or so of ripening. You don't want any green. Ideally you want to use this variety for the vibrant fragrance and sweetness, but if you can't find it, you can certainly use regular bananas. The batter is a tempura style batter and many brands are available in the Asian markets labeled as "Bot Chuoi Chien." Chuoi Chien Fried Bananas Printable Recipe •2 lbs of ripe bananas (bananito/mazano/xiem variety) •1 package of fried banana flour (bot chuoi chien-see below, but any brand will do) •1 3/4 cup water or what is directed by your brand of flour mix •3 tbs sugar •1 ts salt •16 oz can of coconut milk-of which save about 3 tbs for the batter. •frying oil Dipping Sauce •Remainder of the coconut milk •2 tbs sugar •1 ts salt •3 tbs toasted sesame Peel and flatten with the banana with a smooth flat surface such as the side of a large knife or other flat surface. Prepare your batter in a large bowl by adding water and mix well until smooth. Add sugar, salt, and the 3 tbs of coconut milk. Heat the remainder of the coconut milk with the salt, sugar, and bring to simmer and stir frequently. Reduce by half to thick consistency and adjust sweetness to taste and set aside. Heat a pan or wok with frying oil. Test readiness of the oil by dropping a small droplet of batter-it should sizzle and rise to the top. Dredge the flattened bananas in the batter and fry until golden brown. Drain and serve immediately.
