Banana che is probably the easiest che to make, and it is also the sweetest. Cooking with tapioca pearls is somewhat tricky, so carefully follow the directions here. The first few times I tried this dish, however, I had to resort to a bailout plan. You can use another fruit or root in this recipe; just make sure it’s something that can stand up to the heat, like bananas. Berries and citrus fruits would fall apart in the cooking process.
