Spicy Fried Bananas

Yes, you could say I'm going bonkers over bananas. Not too long ago it was Banana Cake and now fried bananas. Hmm, but little can be done when you want to eat something nice without much effort. So, this little dish is not only easy to make but is the perfect pair for South Indian rice delicacies.
