So follow this method and ensure the distance between the pan and slicer is not too high or else hot oil might splutter on you. Also, do not overcrowd the pan or else the banana chips will stick to each other & not turn crispy. Allow the banana slices to cook for ½ minute and then add 1 tbsp of salt-water mixture to the oil. The oil will splutter but, do not worry just take care you are not very close to it. // Call display() to register the slot as ready // and refresh() to fetch an ad. var adslot2 = googletag.defineSlot('/1035919/Rcp_Step_BlockAd', [336, 280], "adslot2").setTargeting("test", "infinitescroll").addService(googletag.pubads()); googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1548320692495-0'); googletag.pubads().refresh([adslot2]); }); // Call display() to register the slot as ready // and refresh() to fetch an ad. var adslot3 = googletag.defineSlot('/1035919/Rcp_Step_BlockAd', [336, 280], "adslot3").setTargeting("test", "infinitescroll").addService(googletag.pubads()); googletag.cmd.push(function () { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1548320692495-0'); googletag.pubads().refresh([adslot3]); }); Let the Yellow Banana Wafers cook for ½ minute again and then gently mix well using a slotted spoon.
