Hello there, been awhile, so i decided this year in my cookery club to build different recipe round one food item, i did not realise what i could come up with when i choose plantain. Its been an amazing and delightful journey discovering different ways to cook with this wonderful vegetable that can be use as a starchy vegetable when green and a sweet side dish or dessert when ripe.
This week we decided to use banana in making a drink, both banana and plantain belong to the same family of Musaceace, bananas are often consumed raw, and only when they are ripe. They are usually much smaller than plantains, and have a much thinner skin, they are usually eaten as a desert, and are commonly used in salads, pies and cakes. At times, they are also used to create beverages, particularly in tropical countries. They are also made into banana chips, which is a great and healthy snack.
Bananas serve as a great source of potassium and also contain anti-oxidants, which greatly help flush out harmful toxins and free radicals from the body.
To make this delightful drink, you will need the following ingredient;
2 ripe banana
3 cups of milk
1 orange juice
1 lemon juice
2 teaspoon of vanilla flavour
Blend all together and serve chilled.
