Fried Banana Rolls are a delightful Kosher Chinese dessert featuring sweet banana fillings wrapped in a crispy, golden-brown shell. These treats offer a perfect balance of crunchy and soft textures, making them irresistible to any dessert lover.

Ingredients

• Ripe bananas - 2 medium
• Spring roll wrappers - 4 pieces
• Granulated sugar - 2 tablespoons
• Cinnamon - 1/2 teaspoon
• Vanilla extract - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. Peel the ripe bananas and mash them in a bowl until smooth.
2. Add granulated sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix well.
3. Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you.
4. Place about 2 tablespoons of the banana mixture in the center of the wrapper.

6. Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
7. In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until hot (about 180°C or 350°F).
