Banane malaxé is a meal from the West region of Cameroon which is now eaten by many other regions and tribes in the country. It's a one pot meal which is very nourishing and easy to cook. 

Unripe banana

Groundnuts

Ginger

Onion and or leeks

Garlic

Seasoning 

Palm oil 

Smoked fish or meat

Peel the bananas, ginger, garlic, onion and leeks. Wash the bananas and set aside. Wash the rest of the ingredients and grind the ginger and garlic while you slice the onion and leeks. Grind the dry groundnuts. You don't need to fry them. Remove the bones from the fish and shred into pieces. 

Heat the palm oil and put in the bananas first then add the groundnuts, the fish and part of the ground and sliced ingredients on top of the bananas. 

Cover the pot and leave it to cook for about 15 minutes on low heat. Do not stir it. 

Add water to the pot after 10-15 minutes and stir. Put in seasoning and the rest of the ingredients. Stir and let it boil till it's done.

Serve and enjoy your meal 😋
