Candied Banana Fritters

5 bananas
1 tablespoon oil
7 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cold water
1 - 2 teaspoons sesame seeds or black sesame seeds*

Flour Batter
1 egg
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup flour
6 tablespoons cold water (or enough water to make a thin batter)

6 cups oil for deep-frying (or less if desired)

Mix together the sugar and water. Set aside. Beat the egg in a bowl. Add
the
cornstarch, flour, and water, and blend well. Cut a banana on the diagonal
into 5 pieces. Sprinkle some added flour onto it and coat the pieces in
the
flour batter using your fingers. Repeat for each banana. Heat wok and add
oil
for
deep-frying. When oil is hot, drop the bananas into the hot oil and add a
few
pieces at a time, turning them once, until they are golden brown. Remove
and
drain on paper towels.

Heat frying pan and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Give the sugar and water
mixture a quick re-stir and add to the frying pan. Stir the mixture on
low heat until the sugar dissolves and turns into a syrup. Turn off the
heat and add the bananas. Mix carefully and serve immediately. Sprinkle
sesame seeds over the bananas just before serving.
