Ingredients
- four or more plantains (they don't have to be completely ripe)
- one-half teaspoon mild curry powder
- one-half teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- a few cloves or a pinch of powdered cloves (optional)
- salt to taste
- pat of butter (optional)
- one to two cups of coconut milk
Directions
Peel plantains.
Cut plantains into slices, or into quarters by cutting once lengthwise and once across the middle.

Heat slowly, stir gently, and add coconut milk little by little until all is absorbed.
Simmer until plantains are tender.
Add a little water if necessary.
