- canola oil
- small onion, peeled and chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
- ½ pound ground pork
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 ripe but firm Saba bananas
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup water
Instructions
- In a pan over medium heat, heat about 1 tablespoon of oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
- Add ground pork and cook, breaking up to small pieces with the back of a spoon, for, about 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Add soy sauce and continue to cook, stirring regularly, until meat is cooked through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove meat from pan and in a colander, drain any excess liquid. Allow to cool to touch.
- Peel bananas. With a knife, make an incision on one side of the bananas.
- Using a spoon, gently stuff the banana with the cooked meat.
- In a small bowl, combine flour and water. Whisk together until smooth and well blended. Spoon mixture over stuffed bananas to cover meat filling.
- In a pan over medium heat, heat about 2 inches deep of oil.
- Gently place bananas stuffed side up into the hot oil. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until golden brown. Occasionally spoon oil on top of the bananas to cook and brown.
- Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
Notes
- For best results, use ripe bananas for a sweet flavor but very firm so they'll hold shape during cooking.
- Do not overstuff the bananas lest they split open!
- Make sure to use enough oil so the top of the bananas will cook and brown without having to flip.
