Terrestrial banana moqueca:

  • 2 bananas, ripe, peeled, sliced ​​diagonally
  • 1/2 unit(s) lemon (juice)
  • butter
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of palm oil
  • 1 piece(s) tomato, sliced
  • 1 unit of onion, cut into rings
  • 1/2 unit(s) yellow pepper, cut into about 0.5cm strips
  • 1/2 piece(s) red pepper, deseeded, chopped
  • coriander, chopped
  • chopped parsley
  • Green onion, chopped
  • 2 teaspoon(s) of grated ginger
  • 150ml of coconut milk
  • salt
  • pepper

Coconut Flour:

  • 2 tablespoons butter or ghee
  • 1 cup(s) desiccated (dried) coconut
  • 50 g of cashew sherry
  • 1 lemon unit(s) (zest)
  • salt

PRE-PREPARATION:

  1. Gather all the ingredients and utensils for the recipe. Choose the pan or pan in which the preparation will be done (the dish will be served in the pan itself).
  2. If you’re using a crock pot, heat it over medium heat. Otherwise, do it right after you’ve finished the pre-preparation (ordinary frying pans heat up faster than clay pots).
  3. Clean the ingredients for the moqueca, remove the seeds and chop the pepper. Chop the cilantro, parsley and chives and blend the three together to make an herb mix. Pat dry and reserve the herbs in a bowl lined with paper towels.
  4. Cut the tomato and onion into slices and the pepper into not too thin slices. Try to cut them all to the same thickness.
  5. Grate the ginger, place it on the transparent film, make a small bundle and set it aside.
  6. Wash the lemon and grate the zest to obtain the farofa zest.

PREPARATION:

Bananas:

  1. Peel and slice the bananas diagonally.
  2. Water with lemon juice so they do not darken.
  3. Heat 1 non-stick frying pan or plate and grease it with a little butter.
  4. Grill the banana slices until golden brown on both sides.
  5. Reserve.

Terrestrial banana moqueca:

  1. In a previously heated deep frying pan or earthenware pot, put the olive oil together with half of the palm oil and arrange the tomato slices.
  2. Put the onion and bell pepper on top.
  3. Season with salt.
  4. Sprinkle pepper and some of the herb mix (coriander, parsley and chives) on the girl’s finger.
  5. Arrange the grilled banana slices. Prick the bundle with the grated ginger with a fork and squeeze it well so that only the juice falls on the moqueca.
  6. Drizzle with coconut milk.
  7. Add the remaining palm oil.
  8. Top with the remaining herb mix.
  9. Bring to a boil over medium heat, covered, shaking the pan occasionally so it doesn’t stick to the bottom.

Coconut Flour:

  1. In another nonstick skillet, melt the butter until lightly browned.
  2. Add the grated desiccated coconut and season with salt.
  3. Toast the farofa, stirring constantly so it doesn’t burn, until it is crispy.
  4. Add the chestnut sauce and turn off the heat.
  5. Incorporate the lemon zest.

FINISHING AND ASSEMBLY:

  1. Serve the moqueca in the same pan in which it was prepared.
  2. Place the farofa in a bowl and serve separately.
