Green Banana is a type of typical food of the Makassar Tribe in South Sulawesi, especially in the city of Makassar.
[1] This food is made from the main ingredient of bananas coated with green flour dough.[1] The way to cook it is by steaming in a steamer.
The dough is made from flour, water, and green coloring made from a mixture of water and pandan leaves.
In Makassar, green bananas are often found when the fasting month arrives, because the green banana menu is one of the popular fast-breaking menus for the Makassar Tribe. Other choices include es pallu butung and es poteng which are also typical foods of the Makassar Tribe.
Es pisang ijo can be made with bananas, such as banana raja, banana ambon, and banana kepok that are ripe.[2] Banana ijo is usually served with a special red syrup, a thick sweet white sauce made from a mixture of wheat flour, coconut milk, and cornstarch. Then given ice.
