**Saging con Yelo: A Refreshing Sweet Plantain Treat from the Philippines**

Saging con Yelo is a delightful Filipino dessert that combines the sweet, caramelized flavors of plantains with the cooling sensation of shaved ice. Originating from the tropical islands of the Philippines, this simple yet satisfying snack is a staple in many households and is often enjoyed as a refreshing treat on hot summer days.

Made with just a handful of ingredients, Saging con Yelo is a testament to the beauty of simplicity. The main component is saba bananas, a small, sweet variety of plantains that are commonly used in Filipino cuisine. These plantains are caramelized in a mixture of butter and sugar until they are tender and golden brown. The caramelized plantains are then served over a bed of shaved ice, which is topped with a drizzle of sweet syrup and a sprinkling of toasted coconut flakes.

In this article, we will explore two variations of this classic dessert: the traditional Saging con Yelo and a modern twist called the Saging con Yelo with Langka. Both recipes are easy to follow and require minimal ingredients. We will also provide step-by-step instructions, cooking tips, and serving suggestions to help you create this delicious Filipino dessert in your own kitchen.
