1 lg Or 1-2 small bananas per 5 fl Oz orange juice
Person 2 tb Molasses sugar
2 tb Lemon juice 1 Egg
2 tb Calvados, grand marnier or 4 oz Flour
Cointreau 10 fl Oz lager beer
Make pancakes with lager, flour and egg, and cook in the normal way
(I used a cooking spray to grease a non-stick frying pan). Fold each
pancake in half, and then in half again, so it forms a quarter-circle
(if you’re as bad at cooking pancakes as I am, they’ll come out in
bits anyway – if so, pretend it didn’t happen!), and place them in a
large flan dish.
Peel bananas, cut in half long-ways and in half again cross-ways, and
place face-down on top of the pancakes. Put the remaining
ingredients into a frying pan or small saucepan, and boil for 3-4
minutes, until just beginning to be syrupy. Pour over bananas and
pancakes, and bake in a moderate oven (Mark 4 – 350 F) for 20-30
minutes.
I served this with fromage frais (cream substitute) and a chocolate
sauce, for which the recipe follows:
