Mango and Cream Cheese Turon<\/strong> is a delicious twist on our classic lumpia dessert. Perfectly sweet, crispy, and creamy, it's a tasty fruit treat that's sure to be a hit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I've been trying, like, forever, to introduce G to the Filipino cuisine but without success. If I had a nickel for every time something akin to terror flits through his big blue eyes when I offer him a bite of my tinolang frog legs<\/a>, chicken feet arroz caldo, <\/a>and sisig made with pig jowls<\/a>, I'll be by now driving a Ferrari.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But although the dude seldom steps beyond his comfort food of steak and potatoes, he has developed a deep love for banana turon<\/a>. He would hover around me when I fry these dessert spring rolls and would easily polish half a dozen straight off the pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yesterday, however, he was craving for some but we didn't have any saba bananas on hand. He looked so disappointed that I had to be resourceful. I spied two perfectly ripe Philippine mangoes on the counter and a block of cream cheese in the fridge and had a brilliant light bulb moment! The mango and cream cheese turon turned out so good; they didn't even make it to the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
