Directions

  1. Place a lumpia wrapper on a clean surface. Roll each saba banana in brown sugar, then place it on the wrapper with a few slices of ripe jackfruit.
  2. Fold the sides of the wrapper inward and roll tightly to seal. Lightly moisten the edge of the wrapper with water to keep it closed.
  3. Heat the cooking oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Carefully place the wrapped turon into the hot oil.
  4. Fry for 3–5 minutes on each side, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. The brown sugar will caramelize, creating a sweet, crunchy coating.
  5. Remove the turon from the oil and drain on paper towels or a wire rack to remove excess oil.
  6. Transfer to a serving plate and serve warm. Enjoy your crispy and delicious Turon!
