Lynn's Candied Banana Fritters

1 Egg -- beaten
3 tablespoons Flour
3 tablespoons Cornstarch
1 tablespoon Water
3 medium Bananas -- (not too ripe)
Oil -- for deep-frying

In a small bowl mix the beaten egg, flour, cornstarch and water to form a smooth batter. Slice the bananas into 1/2-inch-thick pieces and coat with the batter. Deep-fry at 360 degrees for 20 seconds in two batches and remove and drain. Allow the oil to return to temperature and fry the slices, all at once, a second time just until golden brown.

SYRUP

1 tablespoon Peanut oil
1/2 cup Sugar 

Heat the oil and sugar in a small saucepan. Cook on medium heat until the sugar dissolves and turns a very light golden color. Coat the bananas in the syrup, then plunge them into a serving bowl of cold water and ice cubes. Serve at once so that the bananas are still hot and the syrup crystalized. Use a fork or spoon to remove the banana slices from the water for each serving.
