Prepare the bananas
When you buy bananas, cut off the ends of the bananas, and use a peeler to clean the green peel on the outside.

How to choose and prepare green bananas
How to choose delicious green bananas
- For this dish, you should use Tây bananas, Sứ bananas, or Xiêm green bananas because these three types are chewy and delicious without being mushy.
- You should choose fresh green bananas that feel firm in your hand, with unblemished and undamaged skin.
- Avoid selecting overly immature bananas, as the final product may be bitter, and do not choose ripe bananas, as the final product will be too soft and unsuitable for the dish.
How to prepare green bananas to reduce bitterness and prevent browning
- After peeling the green bananas, soak them in a bowl of diluted saltwater for about 30 minutes to keep the bananas white and remove some of the sap.
- After 30 minutes, take the bananas out and rinse them with cold water, then let them drain.
How to fry crispy banana snacks that last long
- Use a deep pan or pot with plenty of oil to fry the bananas.
- It is recommended to fry small batches of bananas one at a time. Do not fry too many bananas at once as it will cause uneven cooking; some will burn while others will not be crispy.
- When frying, you do not need to stir too much or too quickly. Since we have used a large amount of oil, and the bananas are cut thin and added in small batches, the oil will quickly evaporate the water and make the bananas crispy evenly without needing to stir too much.
- Before frying the bananas, you can put 2 – 3 slices of ginger into the oil to fry first, then remove them before adding the bananas. Alternatively, you can pinch a little salt between your fingers and add it to the oil while frying the bananas.
- When frying, keep the heat low and even.
How to store banana snacks
- After the banana snacks have cooled, place them in a sealed bag and store them in a cool place. You can also put them in the refrigerator to maintain dryness and crispiness for a longer time.
- With this storage method, banana snacks can be preserved for about 1 month.
This is probably an interesting snack for your whole family. With just a little bit of your time, your child can enjoy a delicious banana snack. Wishing you success with this dish.
