Hi Trikus

What type of banana is this? It's angular and squarish fruits are reminiscent of the Saba banana but you mentioned that its smaller and I know that Saba pseudo stems are taller and thicker in girth.

Happy gardening :-)

Hi Trikus

Boil or steam them if they are still immature. Then they would be easy to peel and eat or made to something else like banana cake, banana fritters etc.

And also when they are already fully ripe they will become much much easier to peel just like a cavendish.

Happy gardening
