Peel the bananas and cut into finger-thick slices. Peel and dice the onions. Melt the butter in a casserole dish, fry the onions until translucent, then add the banana slices and bay leaves. Sprinkle with curry powder and fry for 1 minute. Pour in the chicken stock, cover, and simmer over medium heat for about 20 minutes. Pour in the milk, stir, and simmer uncovered for about 10 minutes.
