Toffee Banana / Chinese Toffee Banana

A classic Chinese dessert  with  crispy batter fried melt in mouth banana slices, coated with toffee glazed caramel and sprinkled with sesame seeds.

The sliced banana's are batter dipped and deep fried which makes the banana super soft and melt in mouth texture in side and crispier outside. The caramel coat make it more crunchier and even more wonderful with the sesame seeds.

I came know about this dish from a Facebook group and in the first view i even didn't had any plans to give a try. Months later, my Mr. was referring me about this dish and i was like i know this dish before you and put on my apron to prove it 😎. I was really pleased to him as i made this dish just to impress him and it came out as a delicious snack. We had it with tea, so i am referring it as snack. It is usually enjoyed as a desert as such or with a dollop of vanilla ice-cream.
