Bananas in coconut milk

Today Khun Eak showed us how to make the popular Thai dessert Bananas in coconut milk. It was a fun and very delicious experience. We learned how to make coconut cream and milk from fresh coconut meat but if you don't have access to that you can buy it ready made in cans or tetras. 

This is what you will need to make this delicious dessert:

• 1 and 1/2 cups of sugar
  
• 6 cups of coconut milk
  
• 3 cups of coconut cream.
  
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  
• 20 bananas (not overripe)
  
• 3 pandanus leaves
  
• sesame seeds
  
• young coconut meat
  

How to do:

1. Boil the unpeeled bananas in water until the skins split. (3-5 minutes)
   
2. Put the bananas in cold water for about 3 minutes. Then peel and cut them into 2 inch pieces. (1 banana makes around 4 pieces)
   
3. Bring the coconut milk and pandanus leaves to a boil. Add the bananas, coconut cream, sugar and salt and adjust the amounts until the taste is good. Your dessert is ready to serve when the salt and sugar have dissolved.
   
4. Serve in a bowl and add some sesame seeds and scraped pieces of young coconut meat on top.
   
5. Enjoy!
