About Turon

Turon is a Filipino snack of sliced saba bananas and jackfruit wrapped in spring roll wrappers, sprinkled with brown sugar and deep-fried until crispy and caramelized.

The sugar melts during frying and forms a crunchy, sweet coating around the roll.

Turon is sold by street vendors across the Philippines and is a popular afternoon snack (merienda). It is also called lumpiang saging, or banana lumpia.
