HOW TO COOK BANANA CUE (BANANA-Q)

How To Cook Banana Cue (Banana-Q) –This is a very famous and common snack food in the Philippines and it is very easy to find. Many food carts and small and medium food shops sell this thing. Even the walking street vendors or “mga naglalako” offer this food. Banana Cue or Banana-Q has simple ingredients, not only simple but very cheap ingredients that everyone can afford. And one thing I really like about this dish is that it is very convenient to eat because you don’t need a plate or utensils like spoon and fork to eat this thing because it is served in BBQ sticks. I am wondering if there is still someone who does not know how to cook Banana-Q. Cooking this snack is very easy and simple. You don’t need to be an expert chef to make this food.

Why would you go to the fancy food shops just to eat banana pie if you can call a street vendor to deliver a stick of Banana cue to your office? Makes sense right? If you want to save money then I would recommend you this snack. Let us do a little math here. How much would you save if you eat Banana Cue instead of fancy Banana pie? Say pie is 99cents-$1 (about 37php) and Banana Cue is 25cents (10php). Do you see the difference now? Okay let’s get back to cooking.
