  • Question
    I drained the langka syrup before I put the plantain, sugar, and langka into the wrapper, but I found that when I made turon and fried it, it got soggy. Why might this occur?
    Community Answer
    You used too much liquid. Also, don't immerse it like you would for regular frying, and carefully turn it.
  • Question
    Will the brown sugar syrup harden when poured over the fried turon?
    Community Answer
    It will not have a silky texture. It will be thicker. If you refrigerate it overnight, it will harden and become sticky.

    If this is something you'd like to flavor your wraps with, it can't hurt to try. Do a trial run and see if it tastes great; if it does, you've got yourself a new dish.

    Make sure you allow them to cool on a spaced wire rack so that the skin doesn't steam and soften. It might also help to reheat them in the oven for a few minutes so they can crisp slightly.

    Can I use plantain if I don't find saba?
    Community Answer
    Assuming it is a starch, then yes, because that's what plantains are. In most baking, you can substitute any ingredient for another of your choice from appropriate choices. So if, saba is a starch product, then yes, you can.
