Ingredients
- 10 spring roll wrappers
- 5 ripe bananas, sliced
- 1 cup jackfruit, shredded
- 1 cup dulce de leche
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Slice the ripe bananas into thin pieces and set them aside. If using fresh jackfruit, make sure it is peeled and shredded into small pieces. If using canned jackfruit, drain it well and shred it as needed.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced bananas and shredded jackfruit. Gently mix them together to ensure even distribution of flavors.
- Take a spring roll wrapper and lay it flat on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you, creating a diamond shape. Place about 2 tablespoons of the banana and jackfruit mixture in the center of the wrapper.
- Drizzle about 1 tablespoon of dulce de leche over the filling. Be careful not to overfill the wrapper to avoid tearing.
- Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, tucking it in gently. Then, fold in the sides to seal the filling inside.
- Roll the wrapper away from you, making sure to keep it tight but not too tight that it tears. Seal the top corner with a little water or a dab of dulce de leche to ensure it sticks.
- Repeat the wrapping process with the remaining spring roll wrappers and filling until all are prepared.
- In a deep frying pan or pot, heat oil over medium heat. You will need enough oil to submerge the spring rolls partially.
- Once the oil is hot (around 350°F or 175°C), carefully add a few spring rolls at a time, being cautious not to overcrowd the pan.
- Fry the spring rolls for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to turn them as needed for even cooking.
- Once cooked, remove the spring rolls from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Allow the spring rolls to cool slightly before serving. You can drizzle additional dulce de leche on top or serve it on the side for dipping.
- Enjoy your delicious Turon Dulce de Leche Banana Jackfruit Spring Rolls warm as a delightful dessert or snack!
Tips
- Choose ripe but firm bananas to prevent your filling from becoming too mushy during cooking.
- Make sure your jackfruit is well-drained to avoid excess moisture in the spring rolls.
- Keep your spring roll wrappers covered with a damp cloth while working to prevent them from drying out.
- Maintain oil temperature around 350°F for even, crispy frying - use a kitchen thermometer if possible.
- Don't overfill your spring rolls, as this can cause them to tear or burst during frying.
- For a neater seal, use a small amount of water or beaten egg as "glue" when folding your wrappers.
- Serve immediately after frying for the crispiest texture and most vibrant flavors.
