Jantung Pisang Kerabu Recipe

(Banana Flower Kerabu Recipe)

2 banana flowers (from pisang Awak)

300 g medium-sized prawns (shrimps), shelled

3 big onions, each cut into 6 segments

100 ml thick coconut milk (extracted from ½ grated coconut)

5 tablespoons calamansi juice

3 tablespoons (heaped) sambal belachan (pls refer more Nyonya Recipes)

Method:

Cut banana flower into half lengthwise.  Cover with enough water in a pot and boil until cooked, about 20 minutes.  Drain and cool.  Peel away the outer layers of the flower to reveal the tender pink core.  Slice about 1cm thick, and cut into bite sizes.  In a pot, boil together the prawns, onion and coconut milk over a gentle flame.  Remove from fire when cooked and set aside to cool.  Combine well the calamansi juice and sambal belachan in a mixing bowl.  Add in the rest of the prepared ingredients and toss well.
