Plaintain Halwa

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I soaked the raisins in the milk for 15 mins-could use more time. I cooked and stirred the mixture on the stove approx 1/2 hr-3/4 hr, but couldn't get to go sticky. It turned out chunky. I have mostly used plantains baked and salty so this was quite different.

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Steam the Plantains With the Skin on If You Have a Steam Cooker. Else Microwave Whole, Skin and All, Over a Little Water For About Three to Four Minutes on High Power. This Enhances the Sweetness of the Plantains. Make a Few Slits in the Skin of the Plantains. You Can Even Cut Them in Half. Allow to Cool and Skin Them. I Apologise For Leaving This Part Out to Those Who May Have Already Tried This!
