Tahini porridge with caramelized bananas

My favourite thing to do in the kitchen is to try out new flavour combinations – the more unusual the better. Take this breakfast for instance. Barley combined with tahini (often used in savoury, Arabic dishes or in hummus) gives porridge a wonderfully creamy consistency. The raspberries and lemon thyme on top pack a real flavour punch and balance out the creaminess of the porridge. As for the caramelized banana, well that speaks for itself!
