If these were like plantains this might be really good
NGL banana and ham sounds like a good flavor combo to me.
Someone invented this while high. There is no other explanation.
Or they are plantains, not Cavendish.
Would
don’t know about the bananas being raw and the “hollandaise”. but in DACH there is something called Schinkenbananen, ham-wrapped bananas fried in a pan, usually with some curried rice. sweet and caramelized and some salt and smoke from the ham. my mom used to prepare it when we were kids. we loved it
I wanted to say that looks very “German food after the war”-ish.
that may well be: if you got time try searching for a guy called Clemens Wilmenrod, he was the first German TV cook in the fifties, showing stuff like toast Hawaii and almond filled strawberries. bizarre (would have loved to provide some links, but i couldn’t find the one i was looking for, although I’m reasonably sure it actually exists)
Those appear to be Plantains, not the typical yellow cavendish you buy.
Plantains are not sweet, but starchy like a potato, which means this is likely delicious.
They look like Cavendish to me. Or at least, I remember plantains having sharper angles and being thicker.
Maybe you have a point there. Hard to tell. They would be much better as plantains.
I don’t know how you think you can tell what they are by size.
The recipe merely states “6 medium bananas.” It’s American, circa 1973. 100% chance it means Cavendish.
Plantains? KRAMER!
Drug are bad, mmmkay?
When I was a kid, my neighbours made a similar thing, ‘the flying jacob’ IIRC. The bacon was rolled around the bananas individually, and, smarties was inserted into the bananas…
Yum 🤢
Your neighbors are Swedish.
Flygande Jakob is a Swedish casserole composed of chicken, whipping cream, chili sauce, bananas, roasted peanuts, bacon and Italian salad seasoning, which is a peculiar seasoning blend available only in Sweden.
Yes. I grew up in sweden.
I just think it’s wild that someone emptied out what was left in their fridge into a casserole, and it somehow became a popular dish.
Wtf. Everyone knows you do it with m&ms, not smarties!
Straight to jail with this one.
