Eating Banana Flower!! 🍌 Plant Based Thai Food Recipe!!

- 🎥 Vegan Jungle food in Thailand: • Eating WILD FERN 🌿 + S...
I’m always excited when food that we grow at home is ready to eat, and so I was thrilled when we were ready to harvest and cook a banana blossom (flower) from our yard. #Thailand #vegan #plantbased
Bananas are an amazing tree and fruit. They produce just one stalk of fruit, and actually when you cut off the flower, it increases the size of the fruit. First step, we cut down the banana flower. My Mother in law removed the outer petals of the flower and we only used the inner core white part for this recipe.
Thai plant based (vegan) food recipe: Gaeng Liang (แกงเลียงมังสวิรัติ)
The best thing about this recipe is that it’s very easy and you can make it with any assortment of vegetables, tubers, and leaves, but two most important things are the black pepper and the lemon basil. And in our case the banana flower.
First, pound some shallots with black pepper, a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper. This works well because it releases the flavor of the pepper and the shallot oils and creates a pepper paste. Dissolve this paste into boiling water. Then you start by adding the vegetables that take the longest to cook. Then keep adding vegetables as you go and season with salt. The final step is to toss in a basin of lemon basil, fold it into the soup, and then turn off your heat. You just want to wilt the lemon basil so it remains fragrant.
Again, this vegan Thai food recipe is very simple, but it’s so refreshing, so peppery, and such a good way to make use of a banana flower blossom.
Thank you for watching and hope you’re having a fantastic day!

You know that Mark is a great man when he loves his in-laws living with him and his wife and child. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL🤗💙💜💚
We need more of your mother in law cooking and showing us recipes. As a vegetarian I need more recipes like this that are very healthy and packed with flavor.
Thank you, ok will start doing more like this!
His mother in law gonna have a more successful TH-cam Channel then him in a year 😂
*we also need more recipes* ☺☺
I am rooting for Thai vegetarian food as well. Thanks @Lotleth.
Mark calls ying's mom his mom,which is so sweet and respectful.i believe micah too will grow up to be a fine gentleman like his dad.he is lucky to be growing up in an atmosphere always full of love and respect,lucky little micah.
One of those trips to south of thailand, you can hear, Micah said in the background " I miss my grandma"
Asian ppl will definitely called their wives/husband parents as your parents once you married to their daughters/son. Not like in the USA here that they called each by their names only.
He’s so happy he glows !
Not only is this video very useful for someone who doesn't know how to harvest or process the banana blossom, but it also has such a lovely vibe because of your awesome positivity and the happy music - thanks for posting this!! :)
In India, we use the mature flowers as well (the part of blossom that was discarded). We remove some specific floral parts from it (from each flower), cut it finely, soak it in water for some time, and then stir fry with onions, grated coconut, and a spice mix/chilli powder. It goes so well with rice or chapati. We also make pancakes with finely copped banana flowers. We roast the pancakes over banana leaves. Thanks for sharing your mother in law's recipe! I will definitely try it next time. Sending love from India to you and your family!
💚👍 thank you for sharing. So I can cook the tough part too! Wish me luck! Making it for the first time!
That's wonderful I wish I could taste I have never tasted but I am so interested to taste
Banana flower = lafu tharo
Winter melon= khongdrum
Mushroom=chengum
Lemon basil=mayangton
The gourd type😀=sebot
in Manipuri (Northeast India)
We love eating those. We even eat the hard cover of banana blossom.
So good to see similar foods like ours. Thanks and all the best.
#staySafe
Thank you for sharing!
I live in America. My husband just brought home banana blossom, I have not ever tried it in my entire life! We don’t have bananas growinf in Russia 😉
When I read you comment, I felt glad that I don’t have to throw out hald if the blossom! If you have a minute could you tell me how you cook it in India?
Every son in law, does the Mark smiley food face.
When eating their mother-in-law food, regardless how good it really is. :)
hey Mark, I'm Rob Padilla and I leave in the UK but originally we're from the Philippines , I've off work for a while due to bad knee, luckily I found your Chanel on TH-cam and since then you and your family been a part of my daily routine, love all your videos, hope one day you will greet me on your video, keep safe you and you family God bless 🙏☺️🙂
The bit of wisdom imparted by your mom in law and you is great... because many people around the world do not know that fruits and flower only occur on a banana tree once....
@ 4:00 That "winter melon" as you called it is called Bottle Gourd or Long squash, also called Opo. In India it is called with a lot of names but the most common being Dudhi and Lauki. Those long green ones that you called Zucchini are called Snake gourd and some varieties grow long and curl like a snake and hence the name. Dont let the name scare you, they are rich in iron and a lot of essential nutrients. They grow everywhere but they are mostly consumed in the Indian subcontinent and South east Asia to some extent.
My grandma used to always cook the banana blossom stew in a coconut milk(แกงหัวปลี) for me since it has always been my all time favourite dish! It was a dish that you would never find in any restaurant so I only get to had it occasionally. I remember it very cleary that she used tamarind juice, galangal slices, kaffir leaves, chicken (with bones), shallots, grounded pepper+coriander root+garlic, and additional seasonings like fish sauce or soy sauce. The banana blossoms had to be the fresh one so there are less sap and less stringly when you eat. Out of all meat, chicken taste the best (but you can also not put it in) but when you put the chicken in, make sure to not stir it too much or the soup will be smelly(if I remember it correctly?)
No one prob sees this comment, but I wanna write it down anyway. It was a very comforting, and nostalgic dishes for me whenever I miss my home(I lived abroad, and it was very hard to try to recreate one since all the exotic ingredients were all frozen. So I’d rather not make one at all.) It taste tangy from the tamarind, yet very creamy but not too heavy.
I have fresh tamarind can you suggest how to cook with it or make juice ?
@@zachariahstillwater Yes sure! To make juice, you just need to soak the tamarind flesh(one that was already pitted) in hot water to soften it then you squeeze it & grind it by hand. In Pailin's video (I'll leave the link down below) she said there's no fix amount of water for this but I suggest you go with less water (so that you can add more after without worry.)
Normally, people use tamarind to cook dish that taste sweet & sour. Popular dishes I can think of is Pad Thai & Son-in-law eggs, Tamarind often use as an ingredient for a dipping sauce too (eg. Nam jim jaew น้ำจิ้มแจ่ว)
I recommend watching Pailin's Kitchen and Marion's kitchen for any Thai recipe.
*I also reaaaaaaally recommend trying the Pad Thai and the Thai style steak with Nam jim jaew recipe(I don't eat beef but I know it's good lol)*

@@kion5155 wow thank you
Sounds wonderful! I’m going to try and make your recipe. Did your grandmother sauté the shallots and garlic first and bloom the galangal and spices or did it all go in the soup like the one in the video ?
I read it.
I've watched the entire video and I love the respect and admiration you show to your mother-in-law
Your mother in law is adorable!
Hey Mark you are really helping people in this pandemic to cope up with their stress levels.... Your videos are a stress buster...!! Thank you Mark!! 👍👍👍👍
True
Those are my words too 🙂.
I fell exactly same 👍
Thank you so much Ankita!
We in india use all of blossom in it except the brown upper layer in the banana blossom., After taking the hard pistil and calyx from the flowers... U may refer any banana blossom recipe in you tube
Yes they are very tasty too, I was shocked when she disposed off all the edible parts and was waiting to see what she was about to cook 😂
@@NithyaselvanR yeah I too was of the same feel.... But they might not have known it that's y I messaged....
We cook that in the Philippines, too :)
Those brown upper layers are used to make chutney. Nothing goes waste.
In sri lanka they make a curry
Love his face whenever he puts a spoonful in his mouth. He's truly enjoying his food! 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you, Mark for inviting us for lunch to your house...its been a pleasure. Virtually the food was awsome. Good day and regards
I love this video Mark! I love watching cooking made from fresh ingredients just from your garden! Please post more of these kinds of videos!
Food always tastes better when it's home grown and you cook it yourself! Have a great weekend!
Indeed it does..
Thank you, have a great day too!
I love the wild abundance of herbs used in Thai food!
Have never seen a banana flower before very interesting. By the way you Mother-in-Law's dress is gorgeous! The purple flowers sets it off beautifully.
Wonderful way to start the day... like Christmas, “opening “ Mark’s video. Thank you Mark! My son and I enjoy it.
What a warm and homely feeling ai get watching this video Mark. Love the garden as well. Keep up the great work. Btw your mother in law is so cute 😋
My God, I cant belive that she threw the tiny banana buds out. That is so good. We love it. In Bengal we never throw any of the vegetable out - root, stem flower, skin, flesh, seeds. That is the right way to eat vegetables. Never throw any of the earth’s bounty away.
I was thinking exactly that! We use the banana buds mixed with lentils for a nutritious veggie dish, the petals to steam food, and the stalk for a dry roast curry with coconut. The beauty of a banana plant is every bit of it is edible and useful in some way.
Hey Seema, it depends on the dish, for this dish she only wanted the heart of the blossom.
I think we can not say what is right or what is wrong in making a dish cause it depends on what is needed and what we want in that dish. And depends on the culture also.
Nice! Your garden is thriving! I wish I had the space to grow all those herbs!! You're lucky to have a nice mother inlaw that doesn't mind cooking for you all!
I love your new channel and all the plant based foods you are showing!!!! Thank you.
You are so blessed and lucky to have a wonderful mother in law and a bounty full garden
i love your mother in law's cooking so rustic ❤️❤️❤️
Thank You Sir! Beautiful dish. Plant based goodness, plant based life!❤️💛💚
You are very fortunate to have such a wonderful mother-in-law! ❤️
Love, love your mother-in-law!!!!
This is the first time we saw your mother in law speak so much .. happy to see this video...cheers
Mare is an excellent cook. She is also very friendly.
The adjectives Mark uses makes the food seem that much better. I can taste the flavors from his descriptions.🤤😋
I am enjoying your new episodes. Vegetarian/vegan cuisines, very healthy.
Mark, u got a amazing family, love it.
I have had banana blossoms before. As someone who enjoys a plant-based lifestyle, it can be used as a substitute for fried fish. If seasoned well, it’s very tasty.
Love the garden Mark... lovely mother cooking with so much love.
Great food packed with so much flavor and nutrients.
Love it! After watching this, immediately went to the grocery store and bought the ingredients. Guessed on the ratios, but it turned out super yum! Would love more videos with cooking or even a virtual class w you and your mother in law!
Wow, Mark I can almost taste the food , love the freshness of the herbs and the plants
Mark sure does love his pepper! He always blows me away with how much he uses. Love his videos and what he teaches us.
i love your mother in laws cooking, recipe vids rock!
We, Malaysian Siamese use the banana blossoms as the main vegetables in Kaengsom (แกงส้ม) with Siew York (roasted pork). Another menu would be use them (stim first) to make kerabu/salad (ยำ) with ferns, some kerisik (roasted coconut shreds paste) and sour mango. A blend of south thai, some chinese and Malay dishes which is staple for us Malaysian Siamese. So yummy🥰
Very awesome, thank you so much for sharing this information Aelice!
I like the way the thai's cook outside, no laborious cleaning just hose everything down 😊

Here in the philippines theres a urban myth about the heart or blossom of the banana that if you wait until 12 midnight the juices of the blossom will drip and when you drink it you will have some super powers 🤫😉
All the best n don't forget to save the entire world xD
That's awesome!
Ramon Revilla
