Ingredients:

4-5 plantains
1/2 teaspoon mild curry powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
a pinch of powdered cloves
salt to taste
pat of butter
two cups of coconut milk-canned

Directions:

Peel the plantains. Cut plantains into slices, or into quarters by cutting once lengthwise and once across the middle. In a saucepan, combine all ingredients except coconut milk. Heat slowly, stir gently, and add coconut milk little by little until all is absorbed. Simmer until plantains are tender. Add a little water if necessary.
