The Filipino Elvis Sandwich

Recipe by momaphet

F.C won't let me put in the ingredient Halayang Ube–a sweet jam like spread made from Filipino purple yams . You can buy it or make your own. Sabra bananas are found in Asian markets and may be called Burro bananas they are a little starchier than the standard Cavendish, frying them first are optional .

DIRECTIONS

  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the sliced bananas into the skillet and fry until golden brown on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Spread the Halayang Ube evenly on both pieces of bread. Place the fried banana slices on one of the slices, then place the other slice on the bananas to form a sandwich. Spread the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter evenly on both sides of the sandwich.
