Banana Egg Rolls with Salted Caramel

Banana Egg Rolls with Salted Caramel

Ingredients

Banana egg rolls
8 egg roll wrappers
4 bananas
2 tsp cinnamon
oil for frying

Salted caramel sauce
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tbsp water
3 fl ounces heavy cream
1 1/4 tbsp butter
1/2 tsp kosher salt or sea salt

Instructions

• Peel and mash the bananas. Stir in cinnamon. Unwrap the egg roll wrappers and place one on working counter with a corner facing towards you. Scoop 2 tbsp of filling towards the bottom 2/3 of the wrapper. Fold over the sides towards the center. Dip finger in a bowl of water and moisten the top edges of the wrapper. Roll up the egg roll towards the top. Place seam side down on a tray. Repeat with remaining egg rolls.
• Freeze egg rolls for 30 minutes or until firmed.
• Meanwhile, prepare the salted caramel sauce. Heat sugar and water in a heavy bottomed medium sauce pan over medium-low heat. Let sugar dissolve. Increase the heat and bring to a boil, making sure not to stir the sugar mixture. Boil until the syrup becomes a deep caramel color, about 5 minutes.
• Remove the sugar from heat and whisk in the heavy cream. Add the butter and salt and stir until the butter has melted. Transfer the caramel to a bowl or piping bottle and let cool.
• Heat frying oil to 350 degrees F.
• Carefully drop the egg rolls into the hot oil, frying in batches. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon or tongs and transfer to a paper-towel lined tray. Repeat with remaining egg rolls.
• Drizzle salted caramel sauce on the egg rolls and serve with extra sauce on the side. Serve with ice cream if desired.
