Mexican bananas with rum

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 tablespoons Butter
3 tablespoons Brown sugar
2 tablespoons Sugar
cup Canned and drained pineapple
Chunks
2 larges Bananas, sliced diagonally
½ cup Rum
Vanilla ice cream to serve

Directions

In a medium pan, over low heat, melt the butter and then stir in the brown and white sugars. Continue to stir until the sugars have dissolved. Then add the bananas and pineapple chunks and carefully turn them until they are well coated with the sugar/butter mixture.

Then, turn up the heat to high and leave until bubbling. Pour in the rum and quickly set fire to the mixture. Serve this dessert over vanilla ice cream, while still flaming!!! Source: '100 Mexican Dishes', edited by Grace Teed Kent.
