So this is no proper 'traditional' recipe, but just a British variant because I can't find any decent Middle Eastern bread to use for it. Alas, the bog standard loaf of wholemeal bread that was laying around would have to do! And I think it worked quite well, if I do say so myself.
EDIT: So I just found out from a friend that the bread usually used to make this
is called 'fateerah' (فطيرة) and that it is actually the same as South Asian 'Parathas'. So if you can find either, use that! :)

Ingredients
2 Bananas
3 Slices of bread (wholemeal if you wanna be healthy)
Optionals:
Dates
Some extra thick spooning cream (Not single or double)
Runny Honey |
 |
| In a Large bowl, mash up your banana |
 |
| Add your chopped dates if using |
 |
| Toast you bread until lightly golden brown, do not burn! |
 |
| Crumble the toast into the bowl by squeezing and rubbing it in your hands |
 |
| Mash it all up some more with the help of a potato masher |
 |
| Add a large spoonful of cream if using |
 |
| Mix it all up |
 |
Place in a microwavable dish and heat until hot, drizzle with honey (optional) and serve.
And do not be fooled by what looks like a very modest portion size, there is 3 slices of bread, 2 whole banana, 4 dates, cream and honey in the dish! ;) |
