Procedures:
- Prepare and Organize: Start by gathering and washing all the tools, utensils, and equipment you’ll need. A clean workspace is the first step to a successful banana chip-making adventure.
- Prep the Water: In a mixing bowl, prepare water for washing and soaking the banana slices later on.
- Slice the Bananas: Wash the bananas, peel them, and slice them into thin pieces. Thinner slices will result in crispier chips.
- Wash and Drain: Give the banana slices another thorough wash and allow them to drain, ensuring they’re free from excess water before frying.
- Prepare the Medium Syrup: Measure the required amount of white sugar, vinegar, and water to create a medium syrup. Mix these ingredients well.

- Adding the Syrup: Once the banana slices are well-fried, add the prepared syrup to the pan and continue frying. This step infuses the chips with a delightful sweetness.
- Drain and Cool: Remove the banana chips from the pan and allow them to drain and cool. This helps them achieve the desired crispiness.
- Weighing and Packing: Weigh out 50-100 grams of your homemade banana chips. Pack them into the stand-up pouch, seal it tightly, and don’t forget to add a label for that personal touch.
- Storage: Store your freshly made banana chips in a cool, dry place. Proper storage ensures they stay crunchy and delicious for longer.
