BANANA FRITTERS A LA JACQUES PEPIN



Banana Fritters a La Jacques Pepin image

This is from Sweet Simplicity: Jacques Pepin's Fruit Desserts. These are all he said it is and more! The batter becomes like a "tempura" batter because of the ice water. We added a large egg because it is included in the directions and not ingredients and it made sense. If there is anyone who can look it up for me, I would appreciate it. I copied the notes by hand, copy machine at library was broken, & I wasn't allowed to check the book out. We made these for the last night of Hanukah, there were a lot of over ripe bananas and went ahead and made the fritters. I had been saving this recipe for awhile - am glad I did.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1 1/4 cups ice water
1 cup about canola oil, for frying
2 ripe bananas
1/3 cup granulated sugar or 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Place flour, egg, and about 1/2 the water in a bowl.
  • Mix with whisk for a few seconds, until the mix is smooth, and then whisk in the remaining water.
  • To cook the fritters, take a large nonstick skillet and heat 1/3 cup of the oil to 400F(200C).
  • Meanwhile, peel the bananas, and, holding them directly over the bowl containing the batter, cut them crosswise into 1/4" slices (let slices fall into batter).
  • Make 3-4 fritters at a time - using about 1/3 cup batter for each pouring it into the hot oil.
  • Spread mixture lightly as it hits the pan to create fritters about 3" in diameter.
  • Cook for 3-4 minutes, turn, and cook for 3-4 minutes on other side, until lightly golden brown.
  • Remove fritters with slotted spoon and place them on wire rack to drain.
  • Continue to make fritters, adding oil as needed, until all batter has been used.
  • Sprinkle the drained fritters generously with sugar and serve as soon as possible.

BANANAS FOSTER



Bananas Foster image

The New York Times food editor Jane Nickerson first published this recipe in 1957 as part of an article on New Orleans-style Creole cooking. Adapted from Brennan's restaurant, this recipe is meant to be a showstopper. But it's deceptively easy. Be sure to have a lid at the ready to extinguish the flame in case things get out of hand. If you cannot find banana liqueur, just add a teaspoon more rum.
