He's fascinated by the name of this dish, he always said, banana tataten LOL
So when I made this, he was so excited
He said, mummy! U made banana tataten from Jamie!
But then, he also said, I don't like... wew...
True enough, he didn't even want to try
He doesn't like banana, that's the thing
He doesn't like fruits in fact, what he wants to eat occasionally only papaya, apple and pear - that's all. Many think banana is kids' fave - nope, not for Ian's case
Total opposite from Abby, she loves fruits - most of them
Any parent with solution to make the kids like fruits more? :)
Anyway, we love this, Abby too, especially cos banana is one of her favorite fruit :)
When it's in the oven, the whole house was filled with lovely banana smell :)
One thing is, it's a tad sweet to us. I should have reduced the sugar in this sweet treat, since the bananas I used were so sweet
Recipe can be found in this video
What you need:
(below recipe has been adjusted for future use)
6 bananas (I used ripe pisang raja)
40g unsalted butter
100g caster sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 orange - take the zest
plain flour for dusting
1 pack of ready to use puff pastry (mine is 375g)
- Preheat oven to 190degC
- Place wide rectangle baking tray on medium heat, pour sugar, butter, cinnamon and orange zest -> in this order
- Stir constantly til completely combined and turn fire to low
- Cook for approx 5 minutes while stirring til sugar has all dissolved and the mixture is golden and caramelized. Turn fire off
- Peel bananas, halved, lay carefully on top of the golden caramel
- Remove from heat
- Roll puff pastry til slightly bigger than the tray, lay on the caramel banana, tuck in the edges and bake for 30 minutes
- Once out from oven, immediately overturn the pastry
- Serve warm
Many love to eat it with vanilla ice cream or creme fraiche, but we love to eat it on its own, it's already just too good! :)
This is my last submission for Cook Like A Star hosted by Zoe
