Prawns and Banana Curry
Are you ready to try something amazingly different and incredibly delicious? If yes, then get prepared — because we’re about to show you how to make a bold and flavour-packed Caribbean curry using bananas, prawns, and fiery Scotch bonnet chillies.
This dish stands out because of its surprising blend of flavours. Smooth coconut milk brings together the natural sweetness of bananas with the soft, delicate taste of fresh prawns. Then comes the iconic heat of the Jamaican bonnet chilli, adding a punch of spice that wakes up your taste buds.
For this recipe, we chose bananas instead of plantains for two simple reasons:
Bananas offer a sweeter, richer flavour
Bananas are easier to find in most grocery stores and markets
But if you prefer a more traditional Caribbean touch, plantains are also a great choice — just remember the curry won’t be quite as sweet.
This spicy, colourful curry is not only loaded with bold flavours but is also nourishing and wholesome. Packed with vegetables and healthy seafood, it’s a great option for those who love fresh, natural ingredients. On average, one serving provides around 350 calories, 43% of your daily protein needs, and only 7% of your daily carbs. Serve it with rice, roti, or warm bread to complete the meal.
At Golden Grove Foods, we love exploring recipes that bring real freshness and authentic flavours to your kitchen. We’re excited for you to try this one — and we’re sure you’ll enjoy it just as much as we did. Follow the steps below, and your flavourful Caribbean curry will be ready in about 30 minutes.

Let’s start by getting all the veggies ready.
Peel and slice the fresh ginger root, thinly chop the onions, and slice the scotch bonnet chillies. Then, cut the fresh tomatoes into chunks and set all the prepared vegetables aside.
Next, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet and then add the chopped onion and crushed garlic. Sizzle until the garlic is fragrant and then, add the sliced ginger, curry powder, allspice, and torn thyme sprigs.
Cook the spices for a few minutes to release all their flavour.

Step 3
Now, it’s time to add the delicious bananas.
Peel and slice the bananas into chips and add them to the coconut curry. Then, cook for 5 minutes or just enough for the fruit to release its flavour.
Avoid overcooking them, or they will turn too mushy.
Step 4
Now, tip in the king prawns and squeeze in the lime.
Cook the banana curry for a further 5 minutes.
When the shrimps turn pink and slightly curved, they’re ready. Avoid overcooking them, or they will shrink too much and get chewy.
To finish, serve this delicious prawn banana curry with steamed rice and garnish with black pepper and thyme.
