This came out a touch too think and oily, but was easily fixed. Flavour was amazing, the curry and ginger really pumped up the peanut sauce. I served this underneath some deep-fried plantains and the sweetness really went well with this sauce.

I let the plantain get really dark like you said and it was so sweet and delicious!

I know! It's almost like candy isn't it?

Definitely! I fried one up that was still green too, but I didn't like it much. Bittman has a few recipes that call for green plantains and ripe ones, so I'm excited to experiment more with them!
On a totally different topic, my grocery store had scotch bonnets! So I'm totally going to try some more Caribbean dishes with the real deal. Excited face!

Great! Can't wait to see what you do with them.
I recently found an Asian grocer and can't wait to check it out. You're lucky to be in Vancouver.

Really? I'm always depressed with the produce I can find here. And all the fun stuff is really expensive. Maybe I'm just a whiner though, but that's the way it always seems. I think of America as the land of cheap food. But I do have 74 Asian grocery stores, so I'll give you that!

You know, I think you might be right about the produce. I lived in Vancouver for a while many years ago and I seem to remember thinking that I couldn't get good produce in the grocery store. But my memory could be faulty.

It depends on the grocery store, but your memory isn't faulty.
