Filipino banana cue recipe: Delicious Banana Cue
Filipinos love sweets like cakes, ice creams, chocolates, and fruit desserts.
There are many kinds of tasty food in the Philippines and one of them is Banana Cue.
Banana is abundant in the Philippines and we usually love eating it at "miryenda" (snack) or just eating it any time of the day. It is nutritious, has vitamin B, potassium, fiber, and is tasty. Very easy to prepare and very affordable. In the Philippines, you can buy Banana Cue almost anywhere. It is sold at the streets, markets, department stores with prices ranging from ten to twelve pesos. Many Filipinos made selling Banana Cue their business because of low capital, easy preparation and cooking, easy sales, and reasonable profit. If you are not in the Philippines, you can also easily prepare this delicious snack and share it with your loved ones.
Ingredients:
- Five to ten bananas ("saba" is the best type of banana because it's firmer, tasteless sweet compared to normal bananas being sold but you can use ordinary bananas if you don't have saba)
- Brown sugar
- Cooking oil
- Bamboo stick (optional)
Preparation:
There are several ways to prepare Banana Cue but for me, this is the easiest.
- First, you have to get ripe bananas (five to ten will do for this project)
- Brown sugar (the darker, the better)
- Cooking oil (most Filipinos use coconut cooking oil but any cooking oil will do)
- Peel the bananas
- Stick two bananas on a bamboo stick (optional)
- Roll the bananas to the brown sugar
- Heat the frying pan and add cooking oil (the more cooking oil the better to prevent the banana with sugar from sticking to the frying pan). When the cooking oil is hot and boiling, carefully put the bananas inside.
- Rotate the bananas from time to time to prevent them from sticking to the frying pan.
- You can add more sugar while cooking to get a brown even look.
- When the banana is brown and evenly covered, remove them from the frying pan
- Banana Cue is best served hot but some people (including myself) love eating it cold. Now enjoy your homemade healthy and delicious Banana Cue.
Preparing Banana Cue is easy, cheap, and fast. Whenever I need a quick dessert for my kid and his friends, Banana Cue is always on the top of my list.
