Recipes from The Cook Islands |
Poke (Banana Pudding)
Country: The Cook IslandsCourse: Dessert
Makes: 4 servings
Ingredients:
- 1 cup starch (arrowroot is traditional, but cornstarch can also be used)
- 2 cups mashed or pureed banana
- Sugar (optional)
- 3/4 cup coconut cream
Directions:
- Blend the bananas with the starch until you get a smooth consistency. Add 1/4 cup of the coconut cream and mix until well-incorporated.
- Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish (I actually used little mini tart pans since there wasn't really a whole lot of the mixture).
- Bake for 30 minutes, or until beginning to brown on top.
- Meanwhile, boil the rest of the coconut cream until it thickens a little. Pour the thickened cream over the banana puddings and serve.
