Turon Malagkit

Turon malagkit has been so popular nowadays. With the pandemic going on, people are looking for some ways to reinvent their ingredients and experiment with new recipes. One of the outcome of those experiments is the turon malagkit. Basically, the sticky rice (malagkit rice) is cooked just like regular rice.

How to Cook Ube Turon Malagkit

Since turon malagkit has been so trending so as ube-flavored foods, I thought of making my own version of ube-flavored turon malagkit. Ube or purple yam is a very delicious root crop and used to make delicacies like ube halaya. Over the years, people have come up with different recipes with purple yam flavor. In this recipe, to make it taste like ube or purple yam, I use ube-flavored condensed milk. I also added some cheese as filling to balance the sweetness.

There are two ways to cook ube turon malagkit. First, you can use ube-flavored condensed milk. Second is by using ube flavoring. Also, you can either dip the fried turon malagkit in caramelized sugar or sprinkle the sugar to the turon malagkit while frying so it will caramelize as you fry.

Ube Turon Recipe

Ube turon – otherwise known as purple yam spring rolls. Purple yam spring rolls are a variation of the Filipino snack turon, which brings a set twist to the usually savory dish that is spring rolls. With ube turon, you basically have an ube filling added inside. A regular turon generally involves a sweet crisp spring roll wrap drizzled with melted sugar and stuffed with roasted bananas. The sweet treat, however, can come with different fillings. Ube just happens to be one of the more popular flavors among snacks and desserts. Making this dish is a relatively simple process, and there are different ways you can go about adding ube flavoring to turon. This recipe is just one way to make this snack:

Ingredients   

• 5 pieces lumpia wrapper
• 3 tablespoons ube halaya jam
• 3 bananas (saba variety), sliced lengthwise (optional)

Instructions  

• Apply the lumpia wrapper/spring roll wrapper onto a clean surface and spread 1/2 tablespoon ube halaya jam
• Place the sliced saba bananas on the bottom third of the lumpia wrapper.
• Fold each side to enclose the filling then roll and seal the end by applying water.
• Heat up a pan of oil and while it is heating up, repeat the rolling process until all ingredients are used.
• Deep-fry the rolls until they are completely golden brown then let them rest on some paper towels on a plate.
• During the draining process, you can drizzle some melted sugar on top and serve once the rolls are drained and cooled.

What Else to Know About Ube Turon

Another name for turon is lumpiang saving and it is believed that the snack came to be around during the time there was a presence of Chinese culture in the Philippines prior to being colonized by Spain beginning in 1521. The ube stuffed turon is one among many variations of the fried snack. Other fruit options you can try out include jackfruit, mango, and coconut. If you want to try for a mix of sweet and savory, you can experiment with the addition of cheese in the filling or go for sweet potato as an alternative. There is no specification on how the different flavors came to be but you’re sure to have a fun experience with the different turon options.

You’ll usually find this snack sold on street stalls along with banana cue, camote cue, and maruya. What all these have in common is that they make use of the saba banana. Saba banana is a triploid hybrid banana cultivar you mainly find in the Philippines. They are mostly used in cooking but can also be eaten raw. They can be, however, also available in Asian markets if you are interested in tasting them. Among the different flavors, you can try turon, having it with ube is a great starter for beginners.

Ube turon is another delicious way to enjoy ube. Ube halaya and cheddar cheese wrapped like a spring roll and fried until crispy. It’s the perfect ube snack ! Just 5 ingredients and ready in no time.

(If you love ube as much as I do, make sure to bookmark this list of the best must-try ube desserts .)

I make ube halaya all the time, not only because we’re big fans of ube at home but also because I love baking with ube jam (can you tell? LOL).

Ube turon is the latest in a long list of ube desserts I make. And as always, it’s so darn good.

Let’s get to it.

Why you’ll love this recipe

• Easy to make . Unlike other ube turon recipes, mine doesn’t contain malagkit or glutinous rice. I decided to make it simpler and easier to make. Just jam and cheese, that’s it! 
• Easy to customize . But it’s incredibly easy to customize. You can add other ingredients that go well with ube, or that you’d like in your turon, like macapuno, langka and even saba or plantain!
• Portable . These are great to bring to picnics and potlucks, perfect for lunch boxes, and for eating on the go.
• Delicious . Ube and cheese in a crispy spring roll wrapper. You won’t be able to eat just one.

How to make

Making ube halaya turon is similar to how you make turon (turon in English is banana spring rolls) and apple spring rolls — roll ingredients in a spring roll wrapper and fry.

Ingredients and cooking tools

You will need just 5 ingredients in this recipe:

• Ube halaya or ube jam — I always use homemade ube jam in my ube recipes. You can also use your favorite ready-made jam, the important thing is you use ube that you enjoy eating on its own.
• Cheese — I like using strong cheddar cheese because it goes so well with ube. However, you can use whatever cheese you have on hand.
• Spring roll wrapper (or lumpia wrapper) — you can find spring roll wrapper in the freezer section of your supermarket. It’s also available in Asian supermarkets.
• Cornstarch — mixed with a little water, this is what we use to seal the turon.
• Oil — for frying. We use canola oil but you can use whatever you use at home.

As far as cooking tools go, nothing special needed, just a pan for frying. 

Step-by-step photos

Position a spring roll wrapper on your workspace (I like using a large cutting board) so that it looks like a diamond when you look down on it.

Place ube jam and slices of cheddar cheese.

Roll starting from the bottom.

Then fold the sides.

Then seal the top by dabbing some cornstarch mixed with water.

Fry on medium-high heat until golden brown. You really only need about a minute on each side.

Remove from pan and allow the excess oil to drain before serving.

Expert cooking tips

Easy, right? Here are more tips for perfect ube cheese turon every time.

• Don’t overfill . I only place about 2 heaping tablespoons of ube jam and 2 small slices of cheese as filling. If you overfill the turon, the filling might ooze out during cooking.
• Wrap snugly but not too tightly. Wrapping too tightly will also cause the filling to ooze out.
• Don’t overcook. Remember that the filling is already cooked. Once the wrapper turns a nice golden brown, take it out.
• Don’t overcrowd . For best results, don’t overcrowd your pan when frying.
• Allow the oil to drip before serving . I like to place the freshly cooked rolls on a wire rack. Placing them on a plate on top of one another tends to make them soft and soggy.

Recipe FAQs

If you’ve ever had ube pies , this tastes very close to that, except we don’t use pastry and it’s fried. It’s sweet from the ube jam, salty from the cheese, and crispy from frying. It’s delicious!

This recipe uses ube jam .  If you have fresh ube or purple yam, frozen ube or powdered ube, you can’t use them as is. You’ll need to make ube jam first.

Yes, you can.  The temperature and cooking time largely depends on the kind of air fryer you have but you should be good following directions on how to cook generic spring rolls.

Like banana turon , ube turon freezes very well.  You can make a batch, roll them, and place them in a freezer-safe container. Ensure that your container is air-tight so that they don’t get freezer-burn.  You can fry them straight from the freezer, no need to thaw

Ube turon is best eaten the day it’s made because they lose their crispiness the longer they sit. To store leftovers, place in a covered container in the fridge. Heat in the microwave before serving and, optionally, pop in the oven toaster to add back a little of that crunch.
