The other day the kids were busy peeling and cutting up bananas….a lot of bananas:
and others were peeling and cutting potatoes. I asked what was for lunch and they said “bananas”. With a look of confusion I asked “just bananas?” “Nope” they said “also potatoes.” I must have still looked confused or perhaps it was my “just bananas?” question because then I got the explanation of banana stew. Still looking very confused Ann went on to tell me they slice the bananas and potatoes and cook them in a stew. Ok, sounds a bit weird to me but once it was cooked it simply tasted like potato stew. I was told the banana is a specific type, used mainly for dishes like this.
