Step 1
Peel bananas and slice them diagonally into 0.5-inch-thick pieces.
Step 2
Whisk rice flour, tapioca starch, and a pinch of salt in a bowl until combined.
Step 3
Pour sparkling water into the flour mixture and stir until you have a thin, smooth batter with no lumps.
Step 4
Heat oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C) — water flicked into the pan should sizzle immediately without smoking.
Step 5
Working in batches, dip banana slices into batter, tap off excess, and slide into hot oil. Fry 2–3 minutes per side until deep golden brown and edges curl slightly.
Step 6
Lift fritters onto a paper towel. Drizzle warm condensed milk over the top and serve immediately.
