Samoan Poi

The Poi served at a Hawaiian luau is not the same as the poi served in Samoa. The base of this Samoan Poi is ripe bananas that have been mashed and combined with coconut cream or milk. With a little sugar and vanilla, you've got a cool dessert to enjoy on a hot day. Many South Pacific islands have adopted the Samoan Poi recipe. Bananas and coconuts are, after all, essential foods on all of those islands. This is a classic and delicious dessert.

Ingredients:

4 bananas, 1/2 cup coconut cream or milk, 2 teaspoons sugar or more or less to taste, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, 1/2 lemon or lime

Instruction:

1. Peel the ripe bananas and then mash them with a fork in a bowl.

2. Add in the rest of the ingredients. If you would like it creamier you can put it in a blender as well.
3. Serve immediately
