Our "dessert" after breakfast - fried bananas sprinkled with sugar. I forgot that I had these "saba" bananas in the fridge. They had gotten quite ripe, so I decided to fry them instead. Saba bananas are the type of bananas that are for cooking, although they could be eaten raw. These are widely available in the Philippines, and I guess it could be likened to plantains in a way. However, saba bananas do get sweeter as they become more ripe. I prefer to boil saba bananas that are halfway to being ripe as they are sweeter. These are good for health and good for those on a diet coz they are quite filling. Plus, they are tasty and can be eaten with some butter, sugar, "latik," or even spicy "ginamos" or fermented fish, usually anchovies. Latik is from coconut milk. You cook the milk with brown sugar for hours until it turns into a caramel-like, gooey spread that's really a good dip for boiled bananas or sweet potatoes. This here is a fried saba dish. Just slice in half (or fry it whole, if preferred), and cook until golden brown. I like to cook it a little longer as it does get crispier edges that are sweet coz of the caramelization of its own sugars. Eat as is or sprinkle with granulated sugar, like we do. This is a great snack alternative too ❣️ #Foods
