Minatamis na saging (literally "sweetened banana") [1] is a Filipino dessert made with chopped saba bananas [2] cooked in a sweet syrup (arnibal) made with muscovado sugar and water. Some recipes also add a little bit of salt and pandan leaf or vanilla extract. Other ingredients can also be added like sweet potato, sago, [3] or other fruits like jackfruit. It can be eaten on its own or added as an ingredient to other desserts (notably for halo-halo). Adding the dessert over milk and shaved ice also results in another dessert known as saba con yelo (also sabá con hielo in Spanish). [4] [5] [6] [7]
The dish can also be cooked with coconut milk instead of water, which is differentiated as ginataang saba. [8]
