Recipes
Banana Peel Curry
Prep time: 10 mins
Cook time: 20 mins
Serves: 2
Ingredients:
2 bananas, peel only, cut to 5cm long strips, discarding the stalks
1 tbsp ground turmeric
1 tbsp vegetable or sunflower oil
1 onion, finely sliced
red chilli, finely chopped
2 cm ginger, grated
1 tsp yellow Thai curry paste
1 tsp ground cumin
120g basmati rice
2 tbsp vegan yoghurt (optional)
10g coriander leaves, to serve
Method
Step 1
Wash the banana peel then put in a large bowl with half the turmeric and pour over just enough cold water to cover, stir to coat then set aside for 30 mins, or up to 6 hours.
Step 2
Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and chilli and fry for 5 mins, until softened. Add the ginger, remaining turmeric, curry paste and cumin and fry for 1 min.
Step 3
Stir in the drained banana peel and fry for 1 min, pour over 300ml water and simmer for 10-12 mins until the peel is cooked through and tender. Season to taste.
Step 4
Meanwhile, add the rice to a pan of salted boiling water and cook for 10 mins, until cooked through, and drain.
Step 5
Serve the curry with rice, yoghurt, if using, and coriander leaves.
Tips and serving suggestions:
Soak the peel in water for 30 mins to remove the slight tannic bitter flavour from the skins and to start softening them before cooking, ensuring they remain succulent. Turmeric adds a little flavour and beautiful colour to the dish.
