Ingredients

  • 4 medium bananas

  • ½ cup soft brown sugar

  • 8 spring roll wrappers

  • ¼ tsp salt

  • 1-2 cups oil, for shallow frying

Method

  1. 1. Peel the bananas, cut them in half crossways and roll each half in the brown sugar. Lay a spring roll wrapper out in a diamond shape and place one banana at the closest end of the diamond. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt, then roll up the banana in the wrapper into a spring roll shape, folding the left and right corners in before you reach halfway, and moistening the end of the wrapper with a little water to seal. Repeat with the remaining wrappers.

    2. Place the oil in a small saucepan or frying pan to a depth of about 2-3cm and heat over medium-high heat to 170C. Fry the spring rolls in batches, turning frequently, for about 5 minutes until they are a deep golden brown. Drain on a wire rack and serve warm.
