GREEN BANANA FRIES



Green Banana Fries image

I learned about this when I was in Kenya. I've never tasted better fries nor more nutritious fries. Potatoes aren't that common in Kenya but bananas and roots are. They taste as good as any fast food French fries and are healthier. Green bananas are the healthiest because they have all their vitamins where ripe ones lose most of them because they're too ripe. Green bananas do not have a strong banana flavor at all. It's very deceptive and very healthy. I couldn't stop eating them.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 3

5 small unripe (green) bananas
1 quart oil for frying, or as needed
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Peel the bananas using a knife, as they are not ripe and will not peel like a yellow banana. Slice into long thin wedges or strings to make fries.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy deep skillet over medium-high heat. If you have a deep-fryer, heat the oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place the banana fries into the hot oil, and fry until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oil, and drain on paper towels. Pat off the excess oil, and season with salt. Serve immediately.

GREEN BANANA FRIES

Green bananas have very little banana flavor but are packed with nutrients. These fries are very similar in taste to french fries. This dish is common in Kenya where bananas and roots are more common than the white potato. Posted for ZWT4. (Original recipe from All Recipes)

FRIED GREEN BANANAS



Fried Green Bananas image

Last week I bought 4 very green bananas in the hopes that they would ripen while we were eating the ripe ones we had. Well they never did ripen and I didn't want to throw them out or go all the way to the store just to return such a small inexpensive item. So....I decided since they were hard like plantain I'd fry them up. Not being a fan of fried foods I would never do this unless I was at a loss...which i was. I cut them in small pieces and fried them in some light vegetable oil. I tasted one, it was very bland. I sprinkled some cinnamon sugar on them and that tasted better. My DH, who doesn't like sweet desserts thought they were good. So now I know what to do with my green bananas that won't ripen up!

  • Peel green bananas by trimming both ends and scoring the skin vertically in 2-3 areas to help remove the skin. Because the fruit is unripened, the skin will be tough.

  • If using an air fryer, work in batches, placing fries in an even layer into the basket. Fry at 400F for 10 minutes, flipping halfway throughout. Repeat with remaining batches.
