Ingredients:

10 sheets of spring roll wrappers, thawed if frozen

5 bananas, roughly sliced

150 g. /5 oz. white chocolate chips or chunks

150 g. /5 oz. semisweet chocolate chips or chunks

For the flour paste:

¼ cup flour

¼ cup water

For the chocolate ganache:

150 g. /5 oz. semisweet chocolate

½ cup heavy cream

1 tablespoon sugar

1 teaspoon butter

4 cups canola oil for deep frying

Directions:

In a small bowl, whisk the flour paste ingredients.

To prepare the chocolate ganache: Add the heavy cream, semisweet chocolate, sugar and butter to a saucepan and place over medium heat. Whisk constantly incorporating the melted chocolate with the cream. Set aside to cool down.

Open the spring roll wrapper package. Cover immediately with a towel (the sheets will dry out quickly if left uncovered).

Spread one spring roll sheet, one at a time, on a plate. With your index finger, wet the edges with the flour paste.

Spread three banana slices in a line horizontally to the bottom edge of the pastry.

Add one tablespoon of white chocolate chips over the banana slices.

Add another tablespoon of semisweet chocolate chips over the bananas.

Tuck in the edges of the spring roll sheet, roll up until you reach the top, then seal.

In a deep fryer, heat oil to an adequate frying temperature. Fry the rolls in batches to golden.

Drain on a paper towels.

Drizzle chocolate ganache on top of the rolls and serve with ice cream if desired.

Note: For optimal results, freeze the rolls for 2 hours before frying (this will prevent the chocolate from leaking when exposed to high temperature).
