Matoki is a green banana from East Africa, described here after boiling in unsalted water. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 22g per 100g, and contains 0.2g of fat. It also provides potassium and vitamin C, with 370mg and 8mg respectively per 100g. The carbohydrate is mainly starch rather than sugar.
Carbohydrate provides energy for the body, while potassium supports normal nerve and muscle function. Vitamin C helps the body absorb iron from plant foods and is needed for normal collagen formation. This unsalted preparation contains little salt, although adding salt during cooking or serving would increase the amount. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
