 Categories: Taste
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      1    Recipe beer batter (above)
      1 tb Grated orange rind
      3    Bananas
      2 tb Dark rum
      1 tb Sugar
           Vegetable shortening for

           Fritter Glaze, optional,
           Recipe follows
 
  Have fritter batter, combined with orange rind ready. Cut the bananas
  into 1-inch pieces. In a bowl combine rum and sugar, stir in bananas,
  and let macerate for 30 minutes. In the deep fryer heat enough
  shortening to measure 3 inches deep, at 375 degrees. In a bowl dredge
  the banana pieces in flour, shaking off the excess. Working in
  batches, dip the bananas in the batter, let the excess drip off, and
  fry them in the shortening, turning them, for 1 to 2 minutes or until
  golden. Remove fritters with a slotted spoon and drain on paper
  towels. Drizzle with glaze if desired.
