SHRIMP AND GREEN BANANA CURRY (FROM THE ISLAND OF MAURITIUS)
The food of Mauritius is a fascinating fusion of Chinese, Creole (island), French and Indian cuisine, also with input from South East Asia. France has had a strong influence here, and the main languages are Mauritian Creole and French. The food is either delicate, or spicy and hot. Fruits are used in abundance. This is a simple taste from that far-flung Indian Ocean island, a beloved holiday spot for South Africans. The coral-reef lagoons around most of the island is reminiscent of the Bahamas. I lifted the basic recipe from the local Sunday Times, but I tweaked it. As far as portions go, I always feel it depends on who's eating, and how hungry they are! You decide.

Steps:
- Add cumin to the curry powder, add the wet spices and coriander, and add just a bit of water, to mix to a paste.
- Fry the onion until transparent. Add the spice mixture, and stir so it fries and the flavour is released. If it's too thick, add a little more water.
- Add the bananas and stir. Add about 1/2 cup water, cover, and simmer for about 6 minutes.
- Add the shrimps, curry or lemon leaves, chopped tomato, hot peppers and sugar. Stir over medium heat, turn heat down, and cook about 8 minutes, until bananas are soft and the shrimps pink and curled. Make sure the banana has softened -- this will depend on degree of greenness or ripeness!
- Taste for seasoning and add salt.
- Serve over rice and sprinkle over chopped cilantro. Dessicated coconut can be served on the side, or over the dish as well.
