Our nature provides a variety of ingredients for us to enjoy a variety of foods. I am very grateful to live in a tropical area filled with various vegetables and fruits.
This recipe feels nostalgic again. My late mother always taught us to utilize ingredients available in nature. It really helped us not to starve when we were struggling financially.
Green banana, one of my family's favorite foods. Green bananas for us are like potatoes. But we didn't have enough money in the past to buy potatoes. So my late mother in the past used green bananas as a delicious ingredient.
Just like potatoes or sweet potatoes, green bananas can be made into delicious snacks. Even in the past, our family consumed these spiced green bananas as a side dish.
So, on this occasion, I will share with you how I process green bananas into delicious snacks that are addictive! The seasoning is also very easy to find, especially in our area.
For the ingredients, I use green chilies, garlic, and shallots. Salt, sugar, coriander powder, and chili sauce!
The taste and texture of spiced green bananas are even perfect for an afternoon snack, just like fried potatoes with various seasonings. So, it is also perfect to accompany coffee or tea.
The interesting thing is that we can eat fried green bananas directly without seasoning and they are delicious! Look at the beautiful color of fried green bananas!

SERVING
Serve the spiced green bananas while warm. If it has cooled, the texture of the spiced green bananas will lose its crunchy.
When warm, spiced green bananas are similar to potatoes but have a lighter texture. In fact, I really like the combination of green chili seasoning with fried green bananas.
From childhood to now, I still love this recipe. Unforgettable. ❤️
