Ingredients

2 cups Carrots grated
2 Bananas sliced
1 pkt Lemon Jelly Powder
1/2 cup Fresh Cream

Instructions

  1. Grate 2 cups carrots into a mixing bowl and sprinkle over 1 packet lemon jelly powder. Mix well and let stand for a few minutes.
  2. Slice 2 bananas and sprinkle lightly with lemon juice to prevent browning.
  3. Add the sliced bananas and 1/2 cup fresh cream to the carrot mixture.
  4. Mix lightly until evenly combined.
  5. Chill before serving for the best flavour and texture.

Hints & Tips

  • Choose ripe but firm bananas – This keeps them sweet without becoming mushy in the salad.
  • Chill before serving – The salad tastes best when well chilled and allows the flavours to meld.
  • Add crunch – A sprinkle of chopped nuts can add texture and extra flavour.
  • Use fresh cream – Whipped cream will give a lighter, fluffier texture compared to pouring cream.
  • Serve fresh – Prepare shortly before serving to maintain the best texture and freshness of the bananas.
