GRILLED BANANAS

Got 10 minutes to spare? You can make this almost ridiculously, easy dessert. Bananas, oranges and cinnamon make a superb combination.

1 orange
6 – 8 medium-sized ripe bananas (pisang raja, mas or berangan)
1 – 2 tbsp butter
Sugar to sprinkle
Ground cinnamon

1. Using a sharp knife, peel a few strips of rind from the orange. (Be careful not to take too much of the white pith). Stack and shred finely – you want about 2 tablespoons of rind. Squeeze orange to obtain juice.

2. Peel and split bananas into halves lengthwise. Choose a not-too-large heatproof dish (any shape) with a depth of about 4 cm/2 inches.

3. Arrange a single layer of bananas on the base of the dish. Sprinkle half the shredded rind, about a loose tablespoon of sugar and a dusting of ground cinnamon. Dot with bits of butter. Arrange another layer of bananas over. Pour the juice over and sprinkle on the rest of the peel, more sugar and cinnamon.

4. Preheat grill and place your dish under it, quite close to the grill. Cook on high heat for 15 – 20 minutes or until top is nicely browned and caramelized in parts. Serve warm with whipped cream, custard or vanilla ice cream.
