Instructions

  1. Mash the banana in a bowl until smooth.
  2. Add the sugar, clarified butter, cardamom and salt, then mix.
  3. Gradually incorporate the rice flour, alternating with the lukewarm water, until you have a soft, smooth, slightly sticky dough.
  4. Let the dough rest for 15 minutes at room temperature.
  5. Shape small balls, then roll each into a rope about 20 cm long and join the ends to form a ring.
  6. Heat the oil to 170 °C: a drop of batter should sizzle gently without browning too quickly.
  7. Fry the rings for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden, then drain them on paper towels.

Variations and tips

Oven version. Brush the rings with clarified butter and bake for 20 minutes at 180 °C for a less greasy version.
