Banana Chips

Banana chips are deep fried slices of unripe bananas, covered with sugar or honey. The chips are crispy and have a sweet taste. But when I was in Thailand, it was my first time to have tasted a salty banana chips. Instead of covering the banana chips with sugar, you can have the salt for a variety.

Today, I will be sharing to you a banana chips that is covered with sugar. As you will see in the photo, the banana chip has a glossy look because of the sugar on it. Actually, I haven’t copied the recipe for this but I will just give you what I have observed while my classmates were cooking this one.
