The type of banana cake Xuan Son eats is a traditional long fried style. The bananas are peeled, flattened, rolled through the dough and fried in a ho.t pan. The cake dough is quite sophisticated, each shop has its own secret, which is the combination of glutinous flour, wheat flour, and rice flour. The cake is usually fried twice, the first time it is fried first and then put on a tray to drain the fat. When a customer calls, the owner will continue to drop it into the frying pan a second time so that the crust is crispy and ho.t.

Banana cake has a crispy crust but is not hard, and the inside still retains its flexibility.

The people of the South American country use 5 ingredients: bananas, all-purpose flour, eggs, breadcrumbs and cooking oil. The bananas are cut in half, then breaded with flour, eggs, breadcrumbs, and finally deep-fried in oil. The special feature is that instead of just eating it as a snack or sweet dessert, Brazilians can eat fried banana cakes with some savory dishes such as blackstone pork, beef steak and eggs.

In particular, they are often eaten with feijoada. This is a dish that originated in Portugal and spread to countries that were once Portuguese colonies, including Brazil. Black bean soup cooked with pork, served with fried banana cakes is considered to be a blend of salty and sweet, very tasty. In addition to bananas, they also often breaded pineapple flour and then fried and served with black bean soup.
