My nephew is in the house and my mother is baby-sitting him while his parents are away and my mother bought some sweet banana spring rolls for each of us four my parents, myself and my nephew. But my nephew doesn't want to eat his share so I got two of these bad boys.

It is delicious because it is crunchy on the outside and sweet in the inside because of the banana. A special one is done with slivers of jackfruit inside plus bananas, it is seldom made because the expensive jackfruit is rarely seen and sold in the market.

But sometimes there is a canned jackfuit sold or as a preserve but those are far more expensive than the frsh fruit itself

Here Is How To Make A "Turon" With Some Jackfruit

Banana is high in potassium and fiber, it is good for joint pains as well particularly the raw ones of the "Saba" variety which is used for cooking or the "Turon" here. The Saba variety is very versatile variety of banana, it is relatively cheap and can be used in so many ways from viand ingredient to sweet dessert.

It can just be boiled or some people if they do not have food to eat they just boil some ripe or unripened fruit and they will eat it like some of the poorest people in this country are doing.

Anyway after eating my two Turons my mother gave me a Pineapple juice sorbet. It is just a frozen pineapple juice straight from our freezer and it is really heaven eating it with a spoon.

@bingbabe (my wife) gets Jackfruit sometimes, (shes from Bacolod). I like some of these fruits but not others.

Mangosteen is another one, but its hideously expensive here to buy.

Jackfruit is really delicious if added to some local desserts @slobberchops
I am wanting to have some Mangosteen I never had them even once.

They look yummy, I am sure you enjoyed them. Your mother is really an Angel, she takes such good care of you and the family. Give my love to her 💖

Yes @nainaztengra My mother is really heaven-sent for me. She is I think the only one that truly cares for me.
Turon is delicious but the crunchiness hurts my swollen gums :/
I'll say Hi to her for you. :)

enjoy :-)

Thank you @flipstar it is truly nice to eat :D

Pretty simple and looks good. I think I could do this simple recipe without the jackfruit. We like bananas.

Yes it is really easy to do @willowwisp but just take it easy with the sugar or it will get too sweet :)

Okay, good to know.

Ang sarap naman yan bro pede pahingi

These do look really tasty, banana is a very versatile fruit. I have not heard of Jackfruit though, which is maybe a good thing if it is expensive.
