Comments on: Banana peel steamed pork and rice http://www.norecipes.com/2008/04/25/banana-peel-steamed-pork-and-rice/ Because cooking is more fun without them...

I have a recipe from my childhood with pork, banana, sultanas and apple cider wrapped in foil and cooked. Its great. You could probably play with that and wrap in banana peal and pour the cider over it to cook. Also banana is used a lot in Samoa. They cook it many ways including small very green bananas cooked in their skins and used as as a vegetable. Yum.

Grace, you flatter me, but this was really just a by product of office boredom. Laura, I was actually surprised at how yellow it turned out. I just assumed it would turn brown like they do when you put them in the fridge. jfolkman I love those bamboo and lotus wrapped rice packets. Lauren, seitan in the veggie-duck form might be quite tasty! Thanks Tarah, chiffonade, Deborah, and Syrie! Cakespy, that's exactly what I was thinking as I tied them up! Kidding;-P Thanks Kevin. Claudia, I have crazy ideas often, judging by the response to this post (record number of comments), I'll have to post more of them:-) Susan... what can I say. I guess I was never one to color within the lines;-) noble pig, it's definitely one of the weirder things to pop into my head as of late. "we are never full", great ideas! I was actually thinking about doing a dessert version of this (maybe with sticky rice rehydrated in coconut milk and sugar). Maybe a banana pudding? Or kumquats stuffed inside strawberries stuffed inside a banana, stuffed inside...... well you get the idea;-) Thanks Lina, Stephanie and Diva!

While I was reading I started thinking about what I'd stuff the banana with. I think it would be interesting to do a masa filling or even mashed yucca. Steaming was definitely the way to go. You could even pre-cook some the rice and meat half way and then stuff and steam. That may cut down on a bit of the strong banana taste. But very creative. It's like forget the banana leaf when you can stuff the actual banana. Maybe a desert would be cool? you know how the Puerto Ricans do the platanos (ripe plantian) and they basically fry it up w/ butter and some liquor? You could even mash banana in there. Now, i'm losing steam but the possibilities are endless! Very nice. While I was reading I started thinking about what I’d stuff the banana with.
