Hi Suanne - it looks quite easy to make! But just wonder, it is possible not to deep fry it (or not to use too much oil)?

Suanne,
This is really similar to a dish I make using silken tofu, but the bananas are a great twist. I love fruit and meat combinations. Can’t wait for the next recipe.

Hi Jenny, this dish is prepared in the community kitchen, not my kitchen :-).
Hi Windy, you can try shallow fry instead of deep frying.
