Ingredients
Ingredients for 4 servings
- 150 g (5 oz.) puff pastry
- 4 Bananas
- 50 g (1/4 cup) brown sugar
- 50 g (3 tbsp.) butter
- 50 g (2 oz.) pastry cream
- 50 g (2 oz.) almond cream
- 20 g (2 1/2 tbsp.) icing sugar

- 1 lemon
- 1 sprig of fresh thyme
- Banana essence (optional)
- 1 soursop or a can of soursop pulp
Method
- Line the tart molds with pastry and bake them blind for a few minutes; this will keep the pastry from getting soggy once filled;
- sauté the bananas in the foamy butter with the whole thyme sprig; add the sugar and half the rum;
- fill the tart shells with the pastry cream, almond cream and 50 ml (3 tbsp.) rum; top with sliced bananas without their juice;
- bake in a moderate oven for 15-20 minutes;
- place the tarts on plates with a ribbon of cooking liquid around them and a scoop of sorbet;
- reheat the remaining rum and flambé in front of your guests.
Preparing the soursop sorbet
- peel and seed the soursop;
- place in an ice cream maker with the lemon juice, icing sugar and banana essence;
- freeze and wait at least 2 hours before serving.
