Now here's a recipe for you - rab's Banana and Parsnip Curry

Now this is delicious!

In a big saucepan gently fry the following ingredients (choose quantities to taste / appetite) in olive oil: -

Coarsely chopped onions (and shallots if you have them)
Diced parsnips
Ground cumin seeds
Turmeric
Cardamon pods
Cloves
A few sultanas

Add a some meat stock (or veg stock if you are a vegetarian!), some fresh coriander leaves and simmer very gently for a while. Add a little creamed coconut, allowing it to melt.

If you get chance at this stage you can leave it overnight for the full flavours to develop. Then reheat thoroughly when you want to eat it.

Before serving with some nice boiled brown rice and your favourite Indian bread add some natural yoghurt, a little garam masala and a chopped banana (one big one or a couple of small).

Enjoy it!

This recipe sounds rather interesting (banana curries are quite "exotic", I like them), but so far I haven't seen parsnip in India. I wonder why it isn't grown here along with carrot?
