While at Camp Muhubay, the adults did a Filipino cooking session making banana que (pronounced Q). We decided this would make a great family cooking project. First, you start with some plantains...yellow with some dark spots. You can't use regular bananas.
You cut them in half (with a child safe knife of course).
You roll them in sugar...we used Sugar in the Raw brand because that's what they demonstrated at the cooking session. The sugar crystals are larger.
Then, you fry them in oil. We used regular canola oil.
While they are cooking and cooling, you find something interesting to do like cut out the ABC letters with your daddy to practice them for kindergarten.
The finished yummy product. You can use the wooden bamboo skewers to eat them on a stick. We didn't have any so we ate them with a fork. Our whole family loved them! We bought some more plantains from the store but they are green so we will have to wait a few days for them to ripen. Delicious!!!

YUM. We are going to have to try those out sometime. Those look delicious!
yum yum...when I went to Haiti long ago we ate them but they sliced them! Sounds like I should try it again! =)
Thanks for sharing that recipe. Sounds easy enough for me to try as I rarely try anything that calls for more than 5 ingredients. Oh, and I easily have bananas that need to be used in a bad way...brown spots, no problem? :)
