Saba Banana Caramel
Ingredients
- ABOUT 6 PIECES SABA BANANAS SLICED DIAGONALLY INTO 3 OR 4
- 3/4 CUP Brown Sugar YOU MAY USE REGULAR SUGAR IF YOU WANT
- 3/4 CUPWATER OR COCONUT MILK I LIKE COCONUT MILK BETTER
- PINCH OF SALT
- 1 TEASPOON VANILLA EXTRACT OPTIONAL
- NOTE: IF YOU INTEND TO EAT IT WITH ICE CREAM OR SHAVED ICE USE LESS BANANAS OR MAKE MORE CARAMEL TO HAVE MORE SAUCE. IF YOU WANT TO EAT IT PLAIN, IT’S BEST TO HAVE THE CARAMEL THICK AND CLINGING TO THE BANANAS.
Instructions
- IN A SAUCEPAN OR DEEP SAUTE PAN ON MEDIUM HEAT PUT WATER OR COCONUT MILK AND SUGAR, STIR UNTIL SUGAR DISSOLVES. STIR IN SALT AND VANILLA. INCREASE HEAT TO HIGH AND BRING THE CARAMEL TO A BOIL WITHOUT STIRRING. WHEN IT TURNS AMBER IN COLOR, ADD THE BANANA SLICES AND COOK UNTIL TENDER. IF YOU FIND THAT THE CARAMEL IS TOO THICK AND YOUR BANANAS AREN’T QUITE COOKED YET, YOU MAY ADD LITTLE WATER OR COCONUT MILK AND SIMMER AND STIR GENTLY UNTIL IT’S COOKED.
- THAT’S IT. MAKE SURE YOU COOL IT TO ROOM TEMPERATURE IF YOU ARE GOING TO EAT IT PLAIN.
