I have just gone through the Banana Akara receipe. As far as I know all forms of akara, be it from beans, banana, cassava, rice, etc, are deep fried. I dare to say fritters are deep fried too. So, to say banana akara should be fried like pancakes is misleading to those who have never seen it done and would wish to try. If the ingredients are mixed to a pancake consistency, by all means, fry them as pancakes.
If you do not succeed then, experiment by adjusting certain ingredients to get the right consistency that would give you the desired results. Just like you would do with a simple pancake receipe!!!!! Bonne Chance et Bon Appetit
