Here's the recipe:

Batter

1. 1/2 cup plain flour
2. 1/2 cup cornflour
3. 1 & 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
4. 1/2 cup coconut milk
5. 1/4 icy cold water
6. 2 tablespoons of sugar
7. 6 ripe bananas
8. Canola oil for deep frying
9. Icing sugar to serve

Coconut sauce

1. 1 cup coconut cream or thick coconut milk (Kara)
2. 1 tablespoons of sugar

Instructions

1. Whisk batter ingredients together until smooth. Slice bananas into thirds and dip into batter coating each piece well.
2. Heat oil to 175C in a large dutch oven or cast iron pan and deep fry bananas in batches. Turn and cook for around 2 minutes or until golden and the batter is cooked. Remove bananas from oil with a slotted spoon and allow to drain on paper towels.
3. To make the coconut sauce, heat coconut cream and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to the boil, reduce heat to medium and allow sauce to thicken & caramelize (about 4-5 minutes). Remove from heat and serve in a dipping dish with bananas.

Notes:If cooking a large batch, keep bananas in a warm oven while you cook until ready to serve. For more amazing island-style recipes, check out ilovecoconutcream.com
