Bananas Foster

 Almond custard
Keskul
 
  • 4 RIPE BANANAS, peeled and quartered
  • 4 TBSP BROWN SUGAR
  • 1 TSP CINNAMON
  • 1 TSP NUTMEG
  • 50 GRAM BUTTER
  • 5 TBSP RUM
  • 4 BOLLS VANILLA ICE CREAM
  
  • 150 GRAM ALMOND PASTE, crumbled
  • 3 CUPS MILK
  • 3 TBSP SUGAR
  • 50 GRAM RICE FLOUR
  • 25 GRAM SHAVED ALMONDS

Heat the butter with the sugar, the rum and the spices in a frying pan. Roll the bananas through this mixture and simmer for five minutes. Serve with a boll of vanilla ice cream.

This dish was created in 1951 in New Orleans by a cook at Brennan's restaurant for a friend by the name of Foster.

Bring a cup of milk to the boil, add the almond paste and the sugar and let it stand for an hour. Puree or mix until all lumps have dissolved. Add the rest of the milk and the rice flour, bring slowly to the boil whilst stirring, simmer on very low heat for a couple of minutes. Pour the mixture in glasses, allow it to cool down and sprinkle with shaved almonds.
