Banana Cue (Dairy-Free Caramelized Bananas)

Instructions

1. 1Peel the 8 Saba Bananas and cut each one in half lengthwise.
2. 2Pour the 2 cups of Vegetable Oil into a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 175°C. You will know it is ready when a tiny piece of banana sizzles immediately upon contact.
3. 3Carefully place the banana halves into the hot 2 cups of Vegetable Oil. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bananas are golden brown on all sides. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bananas from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
4. 4While the bananas are draining, place a separate, medium-sized pan over medium heat. Add the 1 cup of Brown Sugar to the pan. Stir the 1 cup of Brown Sugar constantly until it melts and turns into a smooth, amber-colored caramel, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes. Be careful not to burn it.
5. 5Working one at a time, dip each fried banana half into the melted 1 cup of Brown Sugar caramel. Use a fork or tongs to coat each banana evenly with the caramel.
6. 6Place the caramel-coated bananas back onto the plate lined with paper towels. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes to allow the caramel to harden slightly before serving.
