GETTING READY
1. Mix the flour, rice flour, baking powder and salt well in a bowl.
2. Beat the water and egg into the flour mixture until batter is smooth. Set batter aside to rest for anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour.

MAKING
3. Heat the oil in a deep skillet or deep fryer to between 350° and 375°. Working in batches, using a fork to dip pieces of banana in batter to cover.

TIPS
Use 1/2 cup coconut milk and 1/2 cup water in the batter for a more tropical flavor if you like.
