Strange veggie/ fruit challenge no. 1

We decided we need to take advantage of the wide range of unusual (to us) fruit and vegetable options and learn how to cook with some of them. This weeks challenge was a banana flower pod. We looked up an nice sounding Banana Flower Salad (Thai dish) and then prepared it. Turned out super yummy, even if it did involve lots of chilli and fish sauce.

1. Take 1 Banana Flower Pod

2. Look at it very, very hard

 

3. Hey Presto a Banana Flower Salad with chicken and prawns appears. Magic.
