HOT CURRIED FRUIT
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:
- Choose firm fruits: Fruits that are too ripe will break down during cooking and lose their shape. Choose firm fruits that will hold their shape, such as apples, pears, and pineapples.
- Use a variety of fruits: The more variety of fruits you use, the more complex and flavorful your curry will be. Try using a combination of sweet, sour, and tart fruits.
- Don't overcook the fruits: Fruits should be cooked until they are just tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked fruits will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Use a good quality curry paste: The curry paste is the base of the curry flavor, so it's important to use a good quality paste. Look for a paste that is made with fresh ingredients and has a deep, rich flavor.
- Add some heat:If you like spicy food, you can add some heat to your curry by adding chili peppers or ginger. Start with a small amount and increase it to taste.
- Serve with rice or your favorite side dish: Curried fruit can be served with rice, quinoa, or your favorite side dish. It's also a great topping for yogurt or ice cream.
Conclusion:
Warm curried fruit is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover fruits. With a little creativity, you can create a curried fruit dish that is sure to please everyone at your table.
