Want a Turon recipe that will fix your sweets craving?
Turon Filipino is a sweet banana spring roll, where the cooking-type banana with a piece of jackfruit are rolled on an eggroll wrapper and fried crispy with sugar glaze.
I remember Turon back home more as a merienda or afternoon snack than as a dessert.
Jackfruit or langka, gives it a distinct taste and aroma, but is optional and ok to omit.
Some folks make the turon without the sugar glaze, but you won't be able to easily distinguish it from the savory fillings.
Actually, the glaze serves a purpose.
The sugar coat keeps the spring roll crunchy long after it's been fried, and that's very important.
