  4. bake in a moderate oven for 15-20 minutes;
  5. place the tarts on plates with a ribbon of cooking liquid around them and a scoop of sorbet;
  6. reheat the remaining rum and flambé in front of your guests.

Preparing the soursop sorbet    

  1. peel and seed the soursop;
  2. place in an ice cream maker with the lemon juice, icing sugar and banana essence;
  3. freeze and wait at least 2 hours before serving.
