Brilio.net - Fried bananas are one of the most sought after fried foods. The crispy outside and soft inside make fried bananas successfully appetizing . Moreover, the right sweet taste also adds to the enjoyment of this snack.
As the name suggests, fried banana comes from bananas fried in hot oil. However, before frying, usually the banana is peeled first and dipped in flour mixture. But what happens if the banana is fried with the skin?
A netizen once shared a moment when he was frying bananas via the Instagram account @crispyfoodstation. In the 58 second video, the fried banana really looks intact. There is even skin and stem from the fruit still attached.
As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @crispyfoodstation on Tuesday (9/7), it was so big that one bunch of bananas was carried by two people. So, these two people then put the bananas into a cauldron containing quite a lot of hot oil.

When inserted, only the bottom of the banana is submerged in hot oil. One person was seen taking hot oil using a ladle, then pouring it onto the top of the banana. After a few seconds, the two people immediately lifted the bananas from the pan.

It didn't stop there, the fried banana was then separated from the bunch or stem by a woman. Shortly after, he peeled the bananas one by one. Then put it in plastic and press it until it is flat.
So, this thin banana is then dipped in a special mixture. Only then did the woman put the bananas in oil in the pan used for frying in the initial stage. The bananas are fried until cooked and crispy.

The final result of the fried bananas in the video does look like fried bananas in general. However, the initial process of making it made many netizens angry. Not without reason, many people ask about the function of frying bananas with their skin and stems because it is just a waste of time. This was expressed directly through the comments column on the video which has been watched 35.6 million times.
"What's the point of frying the punsi with the skin on first," explained Instagram @wr__dhan_.
"Way to complicate life," commented the Instagram account @tid4k_tersedia.
"Why why why? Also, why do they never use a normal knife? (Why why why? Also, why do they never use a normal knife?)" said Instagram @psicotapia.clinica.online.
"The first step is so unnecessary," said Instagram @not.anah.
"What's the point of frying bananas with the skin on if it's already peeled off. And if frying like that is necessary, why not remove it from the stem so that all the bananas fry evenly? I have a lot of questions," wrote the Instagram account @abigaille._.documents.
