Peach Mango Turon

Ingredients

  • 825 g canned peaches, drained (reserve the syrup), sliced
  • 1 kg ripe mangoes, sliced
  • 1 cup sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/8 cup cassava starch (or cornstarch)
  • lumpia wrappers
  • oil, for frying

Optional glaze & dust

  • condensed milk
  • powdered sugar

Directions

  • Slice the drained peaches and the ripe mangoes into strips (keep the reserved peach syrup).
  • In a pan over low-medium heat, combine the fruit with the sugar and the reserved peach syrup. Stir gently so the fruit stays in pieces.
  • Simmer until the fruit releases its liquid and softens.
  • Mix the cassava starch with a little of the syrup to make a slurry, stir it in, and keep simmering, stirring now and then, until the filling thickens.
  • Stir in a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness, then let the filling cool.
  • Spoon the filling onto a lumpia wrapper, fold in the sides, and roll up tightly, sealing the edge with a dab of water.
  • Deep-fry in hot oil until golden and crisp, then drain.
  • Optional: drizzle with condensed milk and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
