The combination of sweet rice flour and cornstarch gives these fried bananas the perfect golden-brown crisp. Vietnamese desserts don’t have too much sugar, so if you have a bit of a sweet tooth, add more sugar to the flour batter, or just serve additional spoonfuls of the creamy coconut dipping sauce. Plantains, when available, are even better than bananas for frying because they’re sweeter and meatier. Look for yellow-skinned plantains, not the green ones.
