Ingredients

3 bananas dole, peeled
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg
1/2 tablespoon sugar or to taste
oil for deep frying

Instructions

In a large bowl, mash the bananas with the back of a fork until small chunks form. Add the flour, egg, and sugar, and mix all the ingredients well to form a batter.
Heat a frying pan and add enough cooking oil for deep frying. Once the oil is heated, drop a spoonful of batter into the frying pan, shaping it into a somewhat round form. Deep-fry the fritters until golden brown.
Remove the fritters using a strainer and drain them on paper towels. Serve warm.

Notes

This kuih kodok recipe is not authentic because I added an egg, which is my late mother's recipe. Omit the egg if you want traditional Malay kuih kodok. I personally love the addition of an egg in the batter.

If you are in Malaysia, please use pisang awak if you can find it.
