Turon or Fried Banana Rolls are truly a Filipino snack. It is a street food sold along side with banana-Q. See my previous post of banana-Q. It is prepared by rolling sliced banana sprinkled with brown sugar and topped with langka or makapuno sweets in a lumpia wrapper. Quantities for this recipe is for your guide only, you can make as many turones as you wish there is no limit to the amount of ingredients. It is best eaten as soon as they are cooled enough to eat while the skins are still crisp. Enjoy.

Champeni of Batangas . Champeni or champene, sampeni or sampene , whats in a name, the important is, this goat or beef innards dish is a must try when you are in Batangas . I could not really confirm the common name of this delectable dish. Based on people that I have met and places and that I have visited in Batangas , the pronunciation varies. Even the cooking procedures and ingredients differ depending on the locality in Batangas . These are usually based on every family cooking practice, type and availability of ingredients, similar to the Batangas Kaldereta there are countless versions out there.

At this point can I ask our readers from Batangas to share with us mor...

Turbo Crispy Pata . “Turbo” in Pinoy cooking refers to a dish cooked in turbo broiler , the most common is turbo chicken . On this post I want to share how to turbo cook crispy pata . This post is actually overdue, several readers have been asking if I had tried to cook crispy pata using the turbo broiler on my first crispy pata recipe a few years back. Click this link Crispy Pata , to see that post. If you are interested there is also a bonelsee version in the archives, click the link Boneless Crispy Pata to see that post. Ok back to my Turbo Crispy Pata , the idea of cooking crispy pata using the turbo broiler is to drain out or at least reduce the fats. With turbo crispy pata we have a healthier version . However the turbo crispy pata would not have the usual crisp skin with moist and succulent meat of a traditionally deep fried crispy pata .
