Banana Chips

🇮🇳 Indian

Kerala's nendran plantain coins, fried the same morning they're cut — glassy, salty, faintly turmeric-warm. No Malayali pantry survives without a steel tin of these.

Prep 15 min Cook 15 min Serves 6 Easy

Ingredients

  • Salt1.5 tsp
  • Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
  • Coconut Oil2 cups, for frying
  • Plantain4, raw and firm

Instructions

  1. 1

    Peel raw plantains and keep in turmeric water.

  2. 2

    Slice directly into hot coconut oil with a chipper or mandoline.

  3. 3

    Stir once to separate the slices.

  4. 4

    Fry till the sizzle goes quiet and edges curl.

    Sprinkle salt water, toss and cool to a glassy snap.

Chef's tip

Slice straight into the oil — exposed plantain flesh blackens within a minute.
