Recently, Leena Ezekiel taught a wonderful class on Indian Street Foods. I love Indian foods of all kinds, but especially street foods like pakoras and samosas. India has a rich bio-diversity of banana and plantain, and is the largest producer and consumer with estimated production of 16 million tonnes of bananas annually (from http://www.foodreference.com/). India's domestic production of bananas alone exceeds the entire world trade. This neat fact started me thinking about bananas, and with the warm weather this weekend, I cranked up my ice cream maker to make Caramelized Bananas with Coconut Ice Cream. The combination of tropical flavors, hot, gooey bananas and cool, creamy ice cream was perfect for an early summer dessert after a busy day.
