Kabalagala – Ugandan Banana Pancakes
A yummy, traditional Ugandan recipe.
Ingredients
- 2 Large bananas
- 2-3 cups Plain flour
- pinch salt
- 1 tsp Sugar
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- Vegetable Oil for deep frying
- Extra Sugar For dusting
Instructions
- Peel and mash the bananas in a large bowl
- Mix flour, salt and sugar together in a separate bowl
- Gradually spoon the flour mix into the mashed banana and mix until it turns into a dough
- Dust a work surface with flour, and kneed the dough ensuring it is not sticky
- Roll the dough out until it's approximately 2cm thick. Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out round discs until the dough is all used.
- Heat oil in a deep ban over a medium heat (to check the oil is hot enough, drop a tiny piece of dough in the oil and watch it to rise to the top!)
- Fry pancakes in small batches until they are a rich golden brown - don't take them out early or they might not be cooked through!
- Remove to a plate, and sprinkle with sugar
- Enjoy!
