banana

banana spring rolls 006fixW 1x1W

Ingredients:

1 x 20 packet spring roll pastry

5 x semi-ripe bananas, peeled

1/3 cup jackfruit, shredded (optional)

1/4 cup low g.i. cane sugar or brown sugar

1/4 cup rice bran oil or vegetable oil

 

Method:

1. Cut bananas in halves and slice in the middle (you should have 20 slices). Place pastry on a clean working surface. Place a slice of banana and jackfruit then sprinkle with a little bit of sugar. Fold the pastry over the banana tightly to form a parcel, folding in the edges. Brush the pastry edges with water or a lightly beaten egg and press to seal. Sprinkle a little sugar on top. Repeat with the remaining pastry sheets, banana and jackfruit.

2. Heat oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Cook the banana spring rolls for 2-3 minutes, both sides, until golden and the sugar is caramelized.

Note: You can buy jackfruit in cans in Asian grocery stores and some supermarkets.
