Instructions
  1. Peel the plantains, cut them into small chunks and put into a large deep mixing bowl. Mash into a thick paste with your fingers or an electric blender. If using a blender, you may need to add 1/8 to 1/4 cup of water for smoother blending.
  2. Add the chilli sambal, rice flour, salt and mix well.
  3. Gently heat the corn oil in a frying pan and add the turmeric. Stir well, remove from the heat and blend into the plantain mixture which should be thick yet soft enough to pour. If it is too soft, add small amounts of rice flour or if too stiff, add small amounts of water until it reached the described consistency.
  4. Grease a loaf pan, and pour plantain mixture into it.
  5. Bake in the oven on medium to low heat at 350˚ for 1 hr. or until cooked and firm.
