Ingredients

- 1/2 cup Maize Flour
- 4 tbsp Sugar
- Cooking Oil for deep frying
- Salt a pinch
Instructions
How to make Talétalé / Banana Fritters
- In a bowl, peel the bananas, slice and mash well.
- Add the flours, sugar, salt and knead to a smooth dough. Since the banana will be very sticky, you will have to add the flours slowly and knead to get the mixture come together as a dough.
- Rest for 10 mins, then pinch out small pieces, and shape into walnut-sized balls.
- Heat cooking oil to a pan. Add the banana fritters and cook, turning frequently, for about 5 minutes or until nicely browned and cooked through.
- Drain on kitchen paper and serve either hot or cold with chocolate sauce.
Notes
In the other recipes that I read later, showed the dough to be more of a batter consistency and drop as a bondas.
The whole recipe is something you can increase or decrease depending on your taste. If the bananas are sweeter, you can suggest accordingly.
