broadly ethnically germanic people are all secretly nazis and thats the real reason they have to be replaced with brown people who are less of a threat

It sounds weird but I would still try either way.

I think the bananas just seem odd. If it used plantains instead it wouldn't seem too off for Hispanic or Caribbean food.

>>19325480
That looks pretty good. Is it actually popular in Sweden, or is it some sort of weird niche dish barely anyone ever eats?

something weird desu but flying jacob is actually pretty good even though it sounds kinda stupid
>>19325485
cool

>>19325508
they also put bananas on pizza there

>>19325480
>banana
Yeah, I'm trying this. I'm sure there are examples to the contrary, but pretty much every single dish with banana as an ingredient is S-tier. Unless it's trying to be horrid.

>>19325480
Casseroles are pretty much always good.

>>19325576
They have Internet in ethiopia?

>>19325510
Schools serve it sometimes so not that unusual, never seen anyone make it outside of that though

>>19325510
It looks like it was kind of a 70's meme food but some people still make it

>While its popularity has long since peaked, visitors to Sweden can still track it down in small restaurants and cafeterias. And if that doesn’t sound appealing to you, you should know that most foreigners who express dismay at the ingredient list go on to praise Flying Jacob once they’ve tried it, confessing shame over their previous reservations or complimenting the brilliant pairing of sweet bananas, Italian spice, and smoky bacon fat. If you plan to cook it at home on your own, Dr. Tellström advises, “it must be Heinz chili sauce.”

Is that not normal elsewhere?

>>19326044
no anon, it's not. putting overly sweet toppings on a savory dish rarely works

Wwhat kind of rice and salad?

What's with the swedes and putting bananas where they don't belong?

>>19325480
it's really good when put on Pizza
t. Swede

Good Mythical Morning to you, OP! You have a based taste in morning radio shows.

>>19325536
it'd work better than pineapple since it wouldn't have acidity to fuck up the protein in the cheese

>>19325480
Flying Jacob should have flown to a psychiatric hospital because that's fucked.

>>19325480
I made a flying Jacob once, it was good.

>>19325480
Sweden like, didn't get access to bananas until the 70s so they just started putting them in all sorts of shit and flying jacob was one iteration
It's just like Americans and cheap gelatin

Swefag /ck/ anon here. Maybe I'm just damaged since I grew up with it, but its honestly pretty dope and I make it regularly.

Rough recipe in case any anons want to try it

4 Chicken thighs (Each around 5 ounces)
5 ounces of bacon
1 Banana
1 Cup "Matlagningsgrädde" (Basically regular cream with around 12% fat content, I hear Half and half is pretty similar so maybe try that)
1/3 Cup of bottled Heinz Chili sauce (This is needed for sweetness and heat. And yes nigger you need this; If you cant find it, maybe you can get away with some ketchup that you spice with Cayenne or something)
1/3 Cup of salted peanuts

Dice bacon and fry in pan until cooked but not fully crisp (Will get done in the oven). Remove from pan and conserve bacon grease. Salt and pepper your chicken and fry it in the bacon grease in the same pan on high heat. Chicken also finishes in the oven so don't overcook it here; Just get some color on it and then take it out.

Put chicken in Casserole and sprinkle bacon on top. Slice banana and layer on top of chicken.

Mix chili sauce and cream, salt and pepper to taste. (If you have some fond in the pan from your chicken and bacon, consider deglazing with your cream and scraping up the bits before adding Chili sauce)

Put in a preheated oven set to 225 degrees Celcius (Roughly 450 Degrees Fahrenheit for you burgers) for 20 minutes.

Serve on top of rice.

Its a very forgiving recipe so feel free to adjust ratios etc.

Forgot to mention, the salted peanuts are strewn on top of the casserole when you take it out of the oven.

The dish is very hearty with a slight sweetness thanks to the bananas and chili cream sauce. The bacon and chicken are very rich and pairs very well with rice.

Looks more like a Flying Jenkob

>tfw all the stores only have heinz thai chili sauce
det är slut...

GMM became too pozzed

>>19325480
A lot of things, but that gets to be more the subject of another board. Never cared for Flying Jacob.

>>19325510
It gets around, but like the other guy says it's more of a retro thing.
