Pazham Pori | Banana Fritters



On a rainy day, all of us imagines in our mind that if I get a pazham pori with a hot tea. Wow, that will be more awesome moment. Here I am sharing one of the favourites of mine, that's pazham pori.
Pazham pori also known as ethakka appam is a fritter food with ripened plantain or banana and maida flour. It is a popular tea time snack in South Indian cuisines. It is used as a breakfast and tea time snack. It is very easy to make by using the available ingredients in our home.

INGREDIENTS
  • Plantain- 2 nos, ripen, sliced
  • All-purpose flour - 1 cup
  • Rice flour - 1 tablespoon 
  • Baking soda - 1/4 teaspoon 
  • Sugar - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - a pinch
  • Dosa batter - 1 tablespoon

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Firstly peel the plantains and slice them into desirable shape. Then keep it aside.
  2. In a bowl, take all-purpose flour, rice flour, baking soda, sugar, salt and food colour. Blend well by adding water to it.
  3. Now add dosa batter and mix well. It is optional.
  4. Heat oil in a Kadai.
  5. Dip the plantain slices in the prepared batter and evenly coat them.
  6. Once the oil is heated up, fry the better-coated plantain slices by turning both sides are crispy and golden brown.
  7. Finally, drain over kitchen paper and serve pazham pori with a hot tea.

BONUS TIPS
  • If you are health conscious then you can use wheat flour/ atta instead of all-purpose flour.
  • Rice flour is used to get the crispiness of pazham pori.
  • Use ripe plantains. Don't use overripe plantains.
  • You can use turmeric powder instead of food colour. Or you can avoid this completely. It is only for colouring purpose.
  • By adding dosa batter the pazham pori will get a special taste. You can avoid this also.
  • You can also include cardamom powder in the batter.
