Shrimp and Green Banana Curry (From the Island of Mauritius) Recipe
Posted by
Ingredients:
- 6 bananas, large, green, peeled and cut into 1-inch slices
- 1 -2 hot pepper, green, chopped (remove seeds if worried about heat)
- chopped cilantro , for serving
- desiccated coconut , for serving (optional)
Directions:
- Add cumin to the curry powder, add the wet spices and coriander, and add just a bit of water, to mix to a paste.
- Fry the onion until transparent. Add the spice mixture, and stir so it fries and the flavour is released. If it's too thick, add a little more water.
- Add the bananas and stir. Add about 1/2 cup water, cover, and simmer for about 6 minutes.
- Add the shrimps, curry or lemon leaves, chopped tomato, hot peppers and sugar. Stir over medium heat, turn heat down, and cook about 8 minutes, until bananas are soft and the shrimps pink and curled. Make sure the banana has softened - this will depend on degree of greenness or ripeness!
- Taste for seasoning and add salt.
- Serve over rice and sprinkle over chopped cilantro. Dessicated coconut can be served on the side, or over the dish as well.
