Where to find ingredients
Bananas: Widely available in the fruit section of any supermarket. For a texture closer to the Brazilian 'caturra' banana, look for firm plantains or larger, less ripe regular bananas. Condensed milk and ground cinnamon are standard in the baking or international aisle of most supermarkets. Margarine is also a staple. If you can't find plantains, ripe but still firm regular bananas will work well.
Preparation method
- Cut the bananas lengthwise and then in half
- Fry the banana pieces in a little margarine until soft and golden
- Arrange them in a serving dish
- Cover with condensed milk and cinnamon
- Refrigerate
- Serve when almost frozen
Observations
