Banana Fritters Pisang Goreng

One of the most beloved foods in Indonesia, Banana Fritters are both a dessert and a
snack for locals. This simple comfort food is so popular that it’s sold everywhere in
Indonesia, from five-star hotels to street stalls on dirt roads. If you ever have the
chance to visit Indonesia and partake in the mad traffic on your way to some lovely
destination, you can be sure that a young, hard-working child will run up to your car
window attempting to sell you a couple of banana fritters. Through countless attempts,
I’ve perfected this recipe that is one of the most popular with my own family and

friends. It has a lightly crisp exterior and is soft and sweet on the inside.
