Steamed Plantain for Snacks

When I wanted to eat Filipino food, I go for ways to satisfy my cravings. Today, I wanted to eat banana with bagoong dip. Well, I have the bagoong which I bought from the Filipino store but, the type of banana that I was looking for is scarce here in Florida so; plantain is the alternative. Thanks to my Hamilton Beach steamer, the prep is so easy. I usually set it to 30 to 40 minutes, depending as to quantity of plantain that I wanted to cook. Oh, this steamed banana fills me up. It is my snack and I think I will have a late lunch later. What is your favorite snack?

I Love my #HamiltonBeach #Steamer

I bought this steamer few months ago for the purpose of making #Siopao, a steamed bun. Well, after all this time, my Siopao-making "goal" has not been accomplished .... yet. Oh it's a long story as to why but, I found out that my steamer is truly useful in my kitchen. My rice cooker quit working so; I am using my steamer to cook rice now. I don't really need to buy a new one.

I used the steamer in making leche flan too. In the photo above, that's steamed potatoes so; instead of baking them which takes a long time, I used the steamer. It saves a lot of time and tastes better too. If you want to buy this product, you may check it out in Belk, Kohl's and Walmart. Make sure to compare the price for great savings. Thanks for visiting my blog. Have a great Monday.
