Fabulous way to serve fruit that tastes almost like dessert. It is wonderful served with ham or pork - or even over vanilla ice cream! You can substitute other fruit to your taste but the cherries and bananas should always be used.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before cooking, gather and measure all ingredients and have them ready. This will ensure a smooth cooking process.
  • Choose Ripe Fruit: Opt for ripe and flavorful fruit for the best taste. Overripe fruit tends to be too soft and may not hold its shape well in the curry.
  • Use Quality Spices: Fresh and aromatic spices elevate the flavor of the curry. If possible, use whole spices and grind them just before use.
  • Temper Spices: Tempering spices in hot oil releases their flavor and aroma. This step enhances the overall taste of the curry.
  • Cook Over Medium Heat: Maintain medium heat throughout the cooking process to allow the flavors to develop and blend harmoniously.
  • Garnish with Elegance: Before serving, consider garnishing the curry with fresh coriander leaves, chopped nuts, or a dollop of yogurt for an extra layer of flavor and visual appeal.
