 Recipe By: Miami Spice by Steven Rraichlen


 


 Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl, and gently toss to mix. Correct


 seasonings, adding  salt, lime juice, or sugar to taste.  The salsa should


 be a little sweet and a little sour. Banana salsa tastes best when served
a


 couple of hours after making.  Refrigerate,covered, until serving time.


 


 Serving Ideas: serve with grilled chicken, duck or shrimp.


 


 NOTES: I am serving it with baked fish; I left out the cardamom; I also


 used 1/2 of a hab instead of jalapeno.
