How to Make Green Banana Curry

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a non-stick heavy-based skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon red pepper powder, and 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder. Stir and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add 2 cups of thinly sliced green bananas and sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Cook until the bananas begin to brown slightly at the edges.
  5. Add 1 cup of your favorite vegetable puree (e.g., onion, tomato, or a combination) and 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice. Stir well to combine.
  6. Add 1/2 cup of water, stir, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover tightly, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the bananas are tender.
  7. Stir in 1 can (13.5 oz) of full-fat coconut milk. Cover and simmer on low heat for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  8. Serve warm over steamed rice or noodles. Garnish with fresh cilantro or chopped peanuts (optional).
