Plantains in Sweet Coconut Milk (Kolak Pisang)

Hello Friends!

Last weekend I managed to drag my husband for a walk in the nearby forest, while the weather was lovely. For sure that evening it started to snow again, on Monday and even today it's still snowing, shoveling the driveway has been awesome 🤪 In fact, weather networks predict it won't stop snowing until late Thursday night. Yikes. The good news, we can see more sun light these days. Kinda giving hope Winter will be over soon 😆

For today's recipe share, it is one of my favorite of Indonesian traditional desserts/sweets. I won't know what to call it in English, it's almost like soup dish, but it really is not 😁 It is banana in sweet sauce? It's not thick tho, broth? It doesn't consist meat nor veggies. See, it's not easy to call it...but like a soup 😆

We also have a dessert called "minatamis na saging" or sweetened banana. We use a banana called "saba", and there's no coconut milk in it. I would definitely try this recipe. Thanks for sharing! 😍

Yup! Thats what we use in Indonesia for this dessert. Saba banana.

Kok sama. Di negara saya, juga panggil pisang tanduk 😁 Hehe. gurau2 je. Salam dari Malaysia. Kolak pisang kalo di negeri saya dipanggil pengat pisang. populer di bulan ramadhan

Salam kenal 😊

Just from the image sauce looks like it would work?

Meanwhile I don't think I've tried this one before, which is on the one hand surprising and on the other hand not really as there are a lot of things I haven't tried before XD

I bet you have! Someone from your homeland mentioned on the comment, its called Pengat Pisang in Malay 😊

Halo! Gimana kabarnya disana 🤗

Alhamdulillah kami baik juga. Iya sama saja disini, Canadian ga holeh enter Indonesia, jadi kami belum bisa balik 😔 Semoga cepat kelar nih pandemi, biar kita semua bisa pulkam yak, insya Allah
