When I was in the Philippines a few years back, I used to indulge in something the Filiponos called
a "bananaque". This was a banana on a stick, coated in a crisp caramel sugar glaze, with perhaps
some other flavorings. I have tried to find a recipe, to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

I thought this sounded delicous, so I went looking for a recipe. I discovered that if I entered
"banana que" (two words) instead of banaque, I got several hits. (You can restrict Google results to

This could be it. I recall being told that they were fried, so that part fits. I don't recall a
batter coating, but I could be mistaken, since it's been a couple of years. I'll have to give this a
try. Thanks."JLove98905" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:20040118153914.19320.00000118@mb-

Maruya is the one with the "batter coating". It is actually lumpia (Filipino eggroll) wrapper and
deep fried. Banana Que is nothing but Saba banana rolled in brown sugar then deep fried in vegetable
oil. I believe the closest to Saba you can get here in California are those fat Mexican bananas or
perhaps plantains. Even if you just use regular bananas, you can't go wrong with warm crispy sugar
coated bananas 🙂Alan
