This was HOT! But the flavor was wonderful. I was a little skeptical about the banana, as I don't usually like them, but it was a wonderful addition. I used Recipe #293373 for the curry powder, but did not have peri-peri, so I had to use cayenne. It turned out a little too spicy for me, so I added a touch of honey to my portion. The honey really brought out the fruitiness of the banana without adding too much sweetness. Thanks for posting this, we will definitely have it again (with a little less pepper).
