Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 Yellow Banana Peels
  • 1 Mashed Banana
  • 2 Brown Onions
  • 2 Garlic Cloves
  • 1 Medium Green Chilli
  • 1 tsp Dijon Mustard
  • 1 tsp Ground Turmeric
  • 1 TBSP Raw Sugar
  • 1 TBSP Coconut Sugar
  • 1/3 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 TBSP Oil
  • 1 tsp Salt

Method
 

  1. Wash your Banana Peels well. It is best to use yellow-greenish organic Bananas. Cut off the ends and place the peels in a saucepan of water. Simmer on low-medium heat for 20 minutes. This helps soften the skins.
  2. While your bananas are cooking, slice up your onion and cook in a frypan with oil. Stir regularly until onions have softened and started to brown (approx 20-25 mins)
  3. Remove the Banana Peels, strain, and slice into small strips or chunks approx 1cm.
  4. Add the garlic (crushed or finely chopped) to the onion pan. Stir for 1-2 minutes.
  5. Add in the Tumeric, green chilli, and stir to combine.
  6. Add in the mustard, vinegar, salt, and sugar. Mix to combine.
  7. Add in the Banana Peels and mashed Banana, stir to combine. Simmer for 5-10 minutes until all the flavour has been incorporated into the banana peels. Taste and add extra salt or sugar to your liking.
  8. Spoon into Sterilised Jars and allow to cool before placing in the fridge.

Notes

To sterilise your jars either run them through a hot wash on the dishwasher, cover them in boiling water, or clean and heat them in the oven at 110 degrees Celcius for 10 - 15 minutes.
