Bake Off’s Nadiya Hussain has not only revealed that we can eat the skin of a banana but has also shared a crafty recipe which turns it into ‘pulled pork’.
The television chef joined Good Morning Britain’s Susanna Reid and Ben Shephard where she told audiences that it’s vital that we shift the way we think about food during the coronavirus pandemic.
‘We need to stop and think about what we throw away,’ Nadiya began. ‘I’ve been cooking banana peel forever, we always cook banana peel. I thought to myself, I have to share this!
‘You literally just shred up ripe banana peel The banana peel you’d usually chuck away after making banana bread – and everyone’s making banana bread at the moment.
‘Don’t chuck the peel away, cook it up with some garlic, some onion, some BBQ sauce, stick it in a burger and you’ve got pulled pork, pulled chicken. It’s amazing!’
Who knew?!
Susanna was just as stunned as we were and responded: ‘Banana peel? You don’t mean the skin of the banana do you? I didn’t know that was edible.’
They join Adil El Tayar, an organ specialist, GP Habib Zaidi, and Amged El- Hawrani, and ENT specialist, who had also previously lost their lives.
Susanna was clearly taken aback by the news and was heard clearing her throat as she continued to pay tribute.
‘We thank you for your service,’ she added, with cameras revealing she had been choking up as she announced the news.
