Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Bananas (apple or plantation bananas)
Spring roll/Lumpia wrappers
Brown sugar
Cinnamon ((optional))
Oil
1 tsp flour ((optional))
1 tbsp water

Steps:

  • Cut the top and bottom of the bananas. Cut the bananas in half lengthwise and half it again across. Peel the bananas and set aside.
  • Place some brown sugar on a plate and roll each piece of banana in the brown sugar.
  • In a small dipping bowl, combine the flour and water to create a paste. (I find that using the paste will seal the wrapper better.) Or you could use water to seal the wrapper. Set aside the bowl.
  • On a separate plate, have one corner of the springroll wrapper pointing to yourself. Place the sugared banana about two inches away from the bottom corner. Fold the bottom corner over the banana, roll it forward until it is about halfway. Snuggly fold both right and left corners to the middle. Continue to tightly roll the banana until there is a small amount left of the last corner. Dab the paste/water to the corner and seal it. Set aside the finished wrap and repeat the same procedure for the rest.
  • Heat some oil in a pan or pot. Bring it to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Carefully add in the lumpia and let it fry until it is golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Remove the banana lumpia and let it drain on a baking sheet topped with a wire rack. Serve and enjoy!

TURON (BANANA LUMPIA)

Our homage to the popular Filipino snack turon uses store-bought egg-roll skins to wrap the cinnamon sugar-encrusted bananas. The fruit becomes creamy and almost custard-like during frying.

Time 35m

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 firm-ripe bananas, peeled
12 fresh or frozen egg-roll wrappers (8 inches each), cut into 6-inch squares
Safflower or other neutral-flavored oil, for frying
Honey and confectioners' sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a shallow dish. Cut each banana in half crosswise, then in half again lengthwise to create four pieces.
  • Lay a wrapper on a clean work surface in a diamond shape, with one corner facing you. (Keep remaining wrappers covered with a damp kitchen towel.) Roll a piece of banana in cinnamon sugar, then arrange horizontally about 2 inches from bottom corner of wrapper. Fold bottom corner over banana, then fold in sides over banana. Starting at the bottom, roll up wrapper to form a tight cylinder around banana. Brush top corner with water and press to seal. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Repeat with remaining wrappers, banana pieces, and cinnamon sugar.
  • Add enough oil to a heavy, deep-sided skillet (preferably cast iron) to come 1/2 inch up sides. Heat oil over medium-high until a deep-fry thermometer reads 335 degrees. Working in batches, add lumpia, seam-side down, and fry, turning often, until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Using tongs, transfer to a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to drain. Drizzle generously with honey and dust with confectioners' sugar; serve immediately.

TURON (CARAMELIZED BANANA TRIANGLES)



Turon (Caramelized Banana Triangles) image

This simplified banana filling is a favorite Filipino treat. It is also known as turon, using burro bananas cut lengthwise (instead of my sliced version), sprinkled with brown sugar, then rolled like an egg roll. I decided to fold this in a cute triangle shape inspired by my favorite Vietnamese sandwich shop. Drizzle with chocolate or caramel for a prettier presentation.

Time 45m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon butter
1 banana, halved lengthwise
¼ cup brown sugar
1 dash ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
5 lumpia wrappers, cut into thirds, or more as needed
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in brown sugar and 1 dash of cinnamon. Mix well until bubbles start to appear. Add banana; cook, stirring gently, until it starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer banana to a bowl; roughly slice into 1/4-inch chunks using a spoon. Let filling cool briefly.
  • Whisk water and flour together in a small bowl to make the paste. Mix white sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon together in another small bowl.
  • Lay 1 lumpia strip on a flat work surface. Place 3/4- to 1 teaspoon of filling in the lower corner of the wrapper; fold 1 corner over the filling and enclose, forming a triangle. Fold over the other edges to finish the triangle, smearing the last fold with the paste to seal. Place triangle on a plate, seam-side down. Repeat with remaining wrappers, filling, and paste.
  • Heat 2 inches of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the triangles in batches until golden brown, about 4 minutes per batch. Drain on a paper towel and sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the warm triangles.
