Preparation

Peel the bananas and cut each into half down the middle of the fruit using a knife (with help from an adult) and then cut the banana across to make 4 or 6 pieces.

Gently add the banana to the coconut milk and simmer until bananas are soft. This should take about 2 minutes. (Again supervision is needed at all times).

Adjust sugar and salt to taste.
Serve immediately in shallow bowls, allowing one banana per person.
