Turon (Gluten-Free)

Ingredients

• 4 medium Saba Bananas
• 4 tablespoons Brown Sugar
• 1/2 cup Jackfruit (Langka)
• 8 sheets Rice Paper Wrappers
• 1/2 cup Coconut Oil

Instructions

1. 1Peel the 4 medium Saba Bananas. Slice each banana in half lengthwise, creating 8 banana halves.
2. 2Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the 4 tablespoons of Brown Sugar evenly over each of the 8 banana halves.
3. 3Lay 4 of the 8 sheets of Rice Paper Wrappers flat on a clean, dry surface. Place one sweetened banana half and approximately 1 tablespoon of the 1/2 cup of Jackfruit (Langka) onto the center of each of these 4 wrappers.
4. 4Fold the sides of each rice paper wrapper inward over the filling, then roll the wrapper up tightly from the end closest to the filling to completely enclose the banana and jackfruit. Repeat this process with the remaining 4 sheets of Rice Paper Wrappers, 4 sweetened banana halves, and the rest of the 1/2 cup of Jackfruit (Langka), creating a total of 8 rolled turon.
5. 5Pour the 1/2 cup of Coconut Oil into a 10-inch skillet. Heat the oil over medium heat until it shimmers, reaching approximately 325°F (163°C).
6. 6Carefully place 2 to 4 of the rolled turon into the hot 1/2 cup of Coconut Oil, ensuring the pan is not overcrowded. Fry for 3 to 5 minutes per side, using tongs to turn them gently, until the rice paper wrappers are golden brown and crispy. Remove the fried turon from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
7. 7Serve the Turon warm.
