I love banana in curry - starting from my first ever curry experience.
I was 9 years old, growing up in a posh area of Liverpool called Wavertree Garden Suberbs.
My only experience of curry was 'a carton of' from the one Chinese takeaway in the village. My dad had told me about real curries, and promised he would take me for a proper Indian one day.
Fortunately, an Indian takeaway called 'Parade' opened up in the village. My dad brought home a menu on the Wednesday and promised Friday night tea from there. He told me I could pick two curries and we would share.
After studying the menu for 3 days, I opted for Chicken Malaya - described as farly mild with pineapple, and Chicken Kashmiri - described as mild, creamy with yoghurt and banana.
When we got them, they were exactly the same curry! One had a pineapple ring and the other had some sliced banana.
Both absolutely delicious though!!
