Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 bananas
4 ounces sugar
8 ounces heavy cream
8 ounces coconut milk
8 egg yolks
2 1/2 ounces sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 mango, diced
1/2 pineapple diced
1 papaya, diced
2 ounces rum
1 banana, sliced diagonally
1-ounce butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • To make the banana cigars, puree the bananas with the sugar and spread a circle on a silicone mat, or a piece of parchment paper. Place in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 5 minutes. When ready, roll the circles into a cigar shape.
  • For the creme brulee, combine the cream and milk in a pot and bring to a boil. In a separate bowl, combine the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla. When the milk mixture is ready, temper the egg yolks with the milk. Pour the mixture into a baking dish and place in the oven for 15 minutes. When the creme brulee is cooked, place a small amount into a pastry bag and pipe it into the banana cigars.
  • Salsita: In a small bowl, combine the fruits with half of the rum. In a small skillet, melt the butter and sugar, and saute the bananas with the rest of the rum until golden. Combine the bananas with the rest of the fruits.
  • To serve, place the salsita and a scoop of brulee in the center of the plate and arrange the banana cigars on top.
