CuisineIndian

Kele ka meetha — ripe bananas simmered with sugar, ghee, and aromatic spices into a warm Himachali sweet dish served at family meals and celebrations.

Ingredients

Main

  • 4 ripe bananas, sliced
  • ½ cup sugar (or to taste)
  • 2 tbsp desi ghee
  • ½ tsp green cardamom powder
  • 1 tbsp chopped cashews (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook bananas. Heat ghee in a pan. Add banana slices and sauté gently until they soften.
  2. Sweeten. Add sugar and cardamom; cook until syrupy. Garnish with cashews and serve warm.

Pro tip: Use ripe but firm bananas so they hold shape while soaking up the spiced syrup.
