Ingredients
- 1 green plantain
- 1 carrot
- 3 cups water
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 3 star anise
- 1 12 ounce evaporated milk can
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup brown sugar or more to taste, firmly packed
- 1 pinch nutmeg for garnish, freshly grated
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon for garnish
Instructions
- Assemble your ingredients!
- Wash, peel and cut the plantain into small pieces. It is ok if there is some skin still left on the plantains.
- Wash, peel and cut the carrot into small pieces.
- In a blender, combine the plantain, carrot, and 2 cups of water.
- Blend for 1-2 minutes until smooth.
- In a small saucepan, place the star anise and the cinnamon stick in 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, stirring continuously. There should be little bubbles forming around the perimeter of the saucepan.
- Add the evaporated milk and the coconut milk to the saucepan.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the plantain and carrot puree.
- Stir until completely combined. The porridge will thicken slightly.
- Simmer on medium-low heat, stirring frequently, for about 10-15 minutes or until the plantain is completely cooked. The porridge should be smooth and creamy.
- Take a taste. If the porridge tastes a little grainy, it will need more cooking time.
- Add the vanilla and sugar. Stir to combine.
- Garnish with nutmeg and ground cinnamon if desired.
- Serve warm.
