HOW TO COOK MINATAMIS NA SAGING AT KAMOTE

If you would take a quick peak on the ingredients list, you may realize that what you needed to make this heavenly dessert might already be sitting on your pantry.

Normally, saging na saba is used in minatamis dishes since it is mildly sweet compared to other varieties. You may use ripe or unripe bananas. Just note that unripe bananas may take extra minutes to cook since they are firmer and needed more time to absorb the caramel flavor. As you prepare the saging and kamote, the only thing you needed to do is to braise them in a mixture of brown sugar and water. If you are planning to use muscovado sugar, that would be better since the caramel flavor would be stronger. If in case only white sugar is available, you may still work with it but the final color of your minatamis would be lighter than expected. The original minatamis na saging and kamote only uses banana, sweet potatoes, brown sugar and water. The sago and vanilla extract were just add-ons but can really enhance the dessert and make it more appetizing.
