Ingredients
Overripe plantain
Flour
Sugar
Fast-action yeast
Baking powder
Vegetable oil
Diced Pepper
Warm water
Preparation
- Slice your plantain and put the pieces along with diced pepper into a blender. Add a little bit of water and yeast before blending.
- Once the mixture looks smooth, pour your flour and salt, and blend again.
- Ensure the texture is smooth and isn’t too thick. Pour the batter into a bowl and cover it, allowing the mixture to rise for about 15-20 minutes.
- While the batter rises, allow your frying pan to heat up then add vegetable oil.
- Noticing the oil is hot, scoop a mixture with a spoon, and pour it into the frying pan. If you don’t feel like a spoon might not give the desired shape, you could use your hands.
- Fry until the mosa turns golden brown.
- Once the batter has finished, drain the oil from the fried mosa.
- Volia! Your snack is ready
