DELICIOUS is what it is!
Seriously: there are variations, but basically it is cut up banana (we prefer the little apple-bananas that a lot of people have growing in their back yards here, but any banana will do.) fried in a wrapper like an egg-roll.
Some people add brown sugar, etc., but it is mostly friend banana in a wrapper. It is a dessert variant on a Filipino egg-roll.
Here's one recipe, but I have never seen the coconut added. This one is pretty much the classic version I enjoy in Hawaii. And here's a step-by-step YouTube video showing how to make Banana Lumpia. My Filipino language skills are pretty much limited to greetings, but you don't have to understand the words to understand the very clear instructional video.
Let me caution you: these are addictive. Highly addictive. Sadly, I am an addict.

Yeah, baby!

If you watch that girl on the video, she takes a bite at the end and you can here the "CRUNCH" as she bites into the golden brown fried wrapper... but the insides are soft, as the heat breaks the banana down and kinda melts it a little. (?) I am sure Alton Brown could explain the science behind what really goes on. I just know they taste WONDERFUL.
I am sure Paully has had the Cabales family version of Banana Lumpia, Paul has probably eaten his share in his travels, and anybody with a Filipino friend who has been to a pot-luck dinner!
