AROUND THE WORLD: 10 WAYS TO COOK WITH BANANA LEAVES

From thekitchn.com
Estimated Reading Time 4 mins
  • Steamed fish – A banana leaf makes a fragrant and convenient fish-steaming packet. Wrap the leaf around any kind of firm-fleshed fish (sustainable, of course!)
  • Grilled fish (and other foods) – According to Jaden of Steamy Kitchen, there are two advantages to grilling a fish on top of a banana leaf: first, it “prevents the fragile fish from sticking to the grill grates” and second, it “adds a mellow smoky, sweet flavor to the fish.”
  • Savory custards – Throughout Southeast Asia, cooks make banana leaf “boats” to steam mixtures of meat, spices, coconut milk, and eggs. The Sun-Sentinel has a recipe for Cambodian-Style Amok Fish (adaptable for chicken or tofu) and good step-by-step photos for folding the boat.
  • Tamales – In tropical regions of Mexico and Central America, tamales are wrapped in banana leaves, which imparts a different flavor than corn husks.
  • Pasteles – Similar to tamales, Latin American pasteles are frequently enclosed in banana leaves. Hector Rodriguez has a recipe for the Puerto Rican version of Pasteles, made with green bananas and yautía root (similar to taro), along with a step-by-step photographic guide to assembling and wrapping them.
  • Cochinita pibil – Cochinita pibil is a Mexican dish traditionally consisting of a whole suckling pig roasted in a banana leaf. For a recipe that’s more doable at home, see Andrea Myers’s Slow-Cooked Achiote-Marinated Pork (Cochinita Pibil).
  • Idlis – Varada of Aayi’s Recipes shares a riff on hittu/khottek/kadubu, an Indian dish traditionally made from rice and urad dal (black lentil) batter steamed in baskets of jackfruit leaves.
  • Bibingka – Bibingka, a Filipino coconut cake, is traditionally baked in a pot lined with banana leaves. Panlasang Pinoy’s recipe shows how to adapt this for a cake pan, while Jun-Blog‘s version uses ramekins.
  • Sticky rice – In Southeast Asia, sticky rice is wrapped and steamed inside banana leaves for a sweet or savory treat. For two examples, check out Thai & Lao Food’s recipe for Khao Dome (Coconut Sticky Rice in Banana Leaves) and The Global Gourmet’s recipe for Indonesian Lemper Ayam (Sticky Rice and Spiced Chicken.
  • Presentation – Fresh, green banana leaves can be used as plates, serving containers, and table decor. Banana leaf boats would make pretty bowls for steamed rice, salads, desserts and more.
