What you need
Nenthrapazham/Ripe plantains (Medium): 4 no
All purpose flour: 1 cup
Rice flour: ¼ cup
Sugar: 1 tablespoon (Reduce or increase based on the ripeness of plantain)
Salt: ⅛ teaspoon
Water: 1 ½ cup
Canola oil: 3 cup
Yellow food color: 4 drops (optional)
How I made
Peel and slice plantains into 4 inch slices and keep aside.First make a cut in the horizontal and then make another two cut longitudinally on a plantain.
In a bowl mix all purpose flour, rice flour, sugar, salt, yellow food color (if using) and water to make loose batter similar to dosa /crepe batter.
Heat oil in a thick bottom pan and it become smoking hot, add plantain dipped in batter and cook them for 5 minutes one side and flip the other side and cook for another 4 minutes until it cooked well or golden brown.
Serve with coffee or tea

Yield: 24 no
Verdict: Yummy
