How to Make Green Bananas In Aji Li Mojili Sauce
- **Prepare the Ají Limo Mojili Sauce:** In a mortar and pestle, crush the aji limo peppers, cilantro, shallot, and garlic until a coarse paste forms. Stir in lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper.
- **Boil the Bananas:** Trim the ends of the green bananas and score the peel lengthwise on both sides. This helps them cook evenly and peel easily. In a large pot, bring enough water to cover the bananas to a boil.
- **Simmer Bananas:** Add the bananas to the boiling water, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 15 minutes.
- **Peel and Slice:** Remove bananas from pot, drain, and let cool slightly. Peel the bananas under cold running water; this prevents staining your hands and knife. Slice the bananas into 1-inch rounds.
- **Combine and Marinate:** In a deep dish, gently combine the sliced bananas with the aji limo mojili sauce, ensuring each slice is coated. Add milk for desired consistency. Cover and refrigerate for at least 24 hours (longer is better for maximum flavor absorption).
- **Serve:** Serve the marinated green bananas as a delicious appetizer or a unique side dish. Enjoy!
