Ube turon halaya with langka, a great snack or dessert to have!
Ube Turon Halaya with Langka is a variation of the original banana turon in the Philippines. It is a popular snack and street food. These are commonly sold alongside banana cue, camote cue, and maruya on the streets. (Tagalog pronunciation: [tuˈɾɔn]; also known as lumpiang saging) is a traditional Filipino snack. Instead of a banana, I used pure ube in this recipe.

Description
Turon is thought to have started in villages in the Philippines among banana trees and agriculture fields. Originally, banana turon was prepared with thinly sliced bananas (saba or cardaba bananas) and a slice of jackfruit, which were dusted with brown sugar and served as fillings before being wrapped in a spring roll wrapper (Lumpia wrapper) and deep-fried until almost completely golden brown. In this recipe we use ube and langka as fillings, which make it unique yet so tasty. This is a great snack for everyday or having a crave for sweet desserts.

Peel and cut purple yam (raw ube halaya) and cook until tender.

Prepare enough cooking oil for deep-frying. Fry the lumpia until it turns golden brown.
Use a table napkin or paper towel to drain excess oil and then serve. Happy eating!
