Banana-cue

Philippines is truly a banana republic.  And why is this so?  Well because of tons of banana varieties we can find in the market and the delicious recipes that goes with it.  And when we speak of bananas nothing beats a delicious miryenda of Banana-cue.

I am sharing our neighbor’s authentic banana-cue recipe to die for.

Ingredients:

about 15 pieces of banana saba type

bamboo bbq sticks

half a kilo of brown sugar

half a liter of cooking oil

Procedure:

Peel your bananas.  Heat your deep frying pan with half a liter of oil.  Once the oil becomes very very hot, put gently all your bananas (it depends on the size of your frying pan). Cook your bananas by mixing them constantly, after about three to five minutes add your brown sugar.  It will melt and caramelize.  Continue mixing gently the caramel and the bananas.  If you wish a caramel well melted on your bananas, you can continue cooking this for about five more minutes. Or should you prefer a crunchy sugar coating on your bananas, you should immediately cut the fire.  Take them off one by one and let the oil drip.  Skew them on your bamboo sticks, approximately 3 bananas per stick.
