How to Make Bananas Simmered In Jasmine Scented Coconut Milk
- Peel 4 ripe but firm bananas just before cooking.
- In a medium saucepan, heat 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk over medium heat.
- Add 1/4 cup granulated sugar (or to taste) and a pinch of salt (about 1/4 teaspoon). The salt enhances the richness of the coconut milk.
- If desired, stir in 5-7 drops of jasmine extract or mali essence for a delicate floral aroma.
- Once the coconut milk is hot and smooth, gently add the peeled bananas.
- Simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the bananas are tender but still hold their shape. Do not overcook!
- Remove from heat and serve warm or at room temperature. Garnish with toasted coconut flakes or a sprinkle of chopped pistachios (optional).
