TATALE

TATALE

Have some bananas that are too over ripe to eat?  Please don't throw them out. Instead make a delicious treat called Tatale.  Quick and very easy to make, these yummy little treats are great for a snack, breakfast or lunch.

NOTE:  A really good (over ripe) banana should have lots of dark spots on the skin, in big patches or small speckles, this is pure sugar. The banana should also hold shape.   Do not use if it is passed over ripe.  

INGREDIENTS 

2 Very ripe bananas.
1/2 cup self rising flour
5 Tablespoons of chopped onion.
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg.
1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce (optional)
1 Egg
Peanut oil for frying.
And paper towel on a plat to drain your Tatale.
METHOD OF PREPARATION:

FIRST:
In a large bowl smash up the banana with a potato smasher really good. Next add the 5 tablespoons of onions, cinnamon, nutmeg, chili garlic sauce, and egg and mix well with a wooden spoon.  Next add the flour and mix well.  If the batter appears to be to dry add one tablespoon of milk.

SECOND:  Cook on Medium Low  
Now get a good size frying pan and add about as much oil that when you put your finger in the pan, it just make the very tip of your finger wet with oil.  Turn the stove top to Medium low, let the oil warm up and then add about a good tablespoon of batter to the oil.  Let it cook and as it bubbles it will turn nice and golden on the bottom.  Flip and cook the other side until golden.   Drain on papers towels. Turn the stove top down to low to cool the oil.  Keep in mind you are in control temperature, If the Tatale look a little too dark turn the stove top to a lower, taking too long, turn up a little. But do not go over Medium low.

These go good with maple syrup.
