Banana "Loaf"

It's not really easy to bake when there are no measuring spoons, no measuring cups, a gas oven that has no temperature gauge, and ingredients that are a little different than what I get at home.

Never mind! I made banana "loaf" (but more like cake) today and apart from a slightly burned bottom (less time next time because I can't have less heat), it is actually quite tasty.

Here is my recipe.

8 small red bananas (these are normally red and look to be on the edge of being brown and over-ripe but normally they're not. However, these were getting to the point of being mushy so they were perfect)
1/3 cup melted butter (or what you think looks to be about 1/3 cup)
1/2 thermos lid of sugar
1 beaten egg
pinch of salt
1 level small spoon (tsp?) of bicarbonate of soda
1.5 thermos lids of flour

Mash the bananas in a wok, your only large "bowl", and mix in the melted butter that you have melted in the oven while it heats up. Make sure to use a dish-towel to remove the metal bowl you have used to melt the butter but don't let the towel touch the gas flame.

Stir in the sugar and beaten egg.

Sprinkle the soda and salt over the mixture and stir together.

Pour the flour into the wok and use a metal spoon to mix it all together.

Pour it into a 8x12 greased baking pan. Spread the batter in the pan and bake for... 20 minutes? I did mine for 25 minutes and it was too much. Turn out onto a dishcloth and let cool. Flip from time to time to allow all sides to cool evenly so that the bottom doesn't get soggy.

Enjoy!
