Banana cue is a favorite Filipino snack. This is made from "saba" variety of bananas cooked in boiling and deep fried with molten brown sugar. Served on a stick and best eaten while piping hot. One should be careful though.
Camote (sweet potato) can also be cooked much the same way but cut like french fries and a generous amount of ...well yes, molten brown caramelized sugar. Bliss!
