Buchi is a Filipino treat made of glutinous rice stuffed with a sweet filling, rolled in sesame seeds, and fried into golden brown goodness. Crunchy on the outside, chewy and sweet on the inside. This fried dim sum originated from China and is called Jian Dui. In the US, this is commonly known as sesame balls.

Turon is also called deep-fried banana rolls or banana lumpia.

For Class:
