The white sauce, fish prep, etc. doesn't cause me any problem -- it's sorting out the types of bananas. Here we have your standard large yellow variety in stores, some very small greenish-yellowish ones which I've never purchased, and some reddish ones which name I forgot which I bought once because they were supposed to be "sweeter" than the normal variety and I was hoping to actually like a banana. Next time I'm at the local health food store which has both organic and a much larger than average variety of produce, I will look for the various labels on the types of bananas. Re. the fish, I love to use Tilapia (when it's on sale) -- it's firmer and less "fishy" tasting than so many other white fish -- I've been wondering how it would taste in this. Or Chilean Sea Bass which I adore (and have a wonderful recipe w/ a carrot sauce , sic, over the top for), but which is outrageously expensive here. I have to look at your recipe again .....I think it was not clear to me if you fried or otherwise cooked the bananas....

As you see, "cooking light" it ain't.
