So Yummy Grilled Bananas With Caramel Sauce And Crema Mexicana Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium saucepot on medium heat, melt the Mexican chocolate with the heavy cream. Whisk constantly until the chocolate is fully melted, and take care not to burn the chocolate. Turn the heat off and reserve.
• Preheat a gas or charcoal grill, or a stovetop grill pan, over medium-high heat.
• In a medium mixing bowl, mix the sugar with the cinnamon until evenly incorporated. Toss the bananas with the sugar-cinnamon mixture until fully coated. Transfer to the grill, flat-side down. Grill until the bananas are browned and the sugar is caramelized, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the bananas to a serving platter. Drizzle with the Mexican chocolate sauce, sprinkle with some shredded coconut and serve with vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Stir in sugar and cook, stirring, until sugar is melted and light brown. Slowly stir in the cream (mixture will bubble up).
• Let mixture boil 1 minute, then reduce heat to low. Place the bananas in the pan and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Make caramel:.
• Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium-low heat, then add brown sugar and whipping cream
• Simmer over medium heat and stir occasionally (about 8 minutes).
• Sauce is ready when it is golden brown; it will thicken as it cools.
• Cool completely, then pour into a container (I use one of those squeeze bottles to take with our camping stuff).
• It's OK to keep at room temp, but I would put in fridge if you want to keep longer than a couple of days.
• Prepare bananas:.
• Combine sugar and cinnamon.
• Slice each banana in half lengthwise.
• Roll each banana half in cinnamon sugar, until completely coated.
• Grill coated bananas over hot coals (ideally, you will grill them after dinner, when the coals are nicely glowing; we don't want a raging fire here).
• Grill bananas until the sugar begins to carmelize, but be careful; don't let them burn.
• To serve, put two banana halves on a plate, drizzle with caramel sauce and serve with a dollop of crema Mexicana.

Steps:

• Heat the cream on the stovetop until slightly warmer than room temperature. (about 100 degrees with a thermometer).
• Remove from heat and whisk in the sour cream.
• Pour into a glass jar. Place the lid on top of the jar but don't tighten it. Put the jar in a warm room for at least 4 but up to 12 hours. It will be thickened and you can use it then (especially if using as a sauce in a dish such as enchiladas), or refrigerate for another 4 to 12 hours to thicken even more.

Steps:

• Split bananas lengthwise.
• Sprinkle each half with cinnamon and wrap in foil.
• Place foil-wrapped banana halves around the edge of the grill, about 5 to 6 inches from heat.
• Grill about 5 minutes, turning occasionally.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium high.
• Stir in 1 tablespon peanut oil, honey and brown sugar, stir until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes.
• Sit in milk, 1 tablespoon at a time.
• Stir and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes.
• Remove sauce from heat and stir in raisins and chopped walnuts.
• Set aside and keep warm.
• Peel the bananas, cut each crosswise into 3 sections and then cut each section in half lengthwise.
• Add the additional 1/2 teaspoon peanut oil to a nonstick frying pan and place over medium-high heat.
• Add the cut bananas and saute until they begin to brown, 3 to 4 minutes each side turning once.
• Transfer to individual serving plates.
• Pour the rum into the pan, bring to a boil, and deglaze the pan.
• Cook until rum is reduced by half.
• Add the carmel sauce to the rum and warm.
• Spoon warm sauce over the bananas and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat sugar with water, stirring to dissolve sugar. Boil (without stirring) until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Immediately add heavy cream and butter (mixture may sputter and clump); cook, stirring, until smooth. Add thinly sliced bananas; stir to coat.

Steps:

• Peel the bananas and cut them in half lengthways, then half again, so that you have long strips.
• Mix the hazelnuts and breadcrumbs in a bowl and roll the banana pieces in it.
• Press some of the mixture into the flesh to make sure it is well coated.
• Heat all the sauce ingredients in a small heavy sauce pan, stirring constantly.
• Heat the oil in a wok to 180 degrees Celsius.
• How much oil you use is relevant to how big your wok is.
• Put enough so it will cover the bananas, but never fill it more than halfway.
• Deep fry the bananas in batches for about 2 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Place the fried bananas on a piece of paper towel on a place to let the oil drain.
• To serve, place the bananas on a plate and pour some caramel sauce over top.

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• Peel bananas and halve lengthwise. In a shallow baking pan large enough to hold bananas in one layer stir together butter and brown sugar and add bananas, tossing gently to coat. Transfer bananas with a metal spatula to an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals and grill until browned and cooked through, about 2 minutes on each side. (If bananas are difficult to handle you may grill them on 1 side only.)
• Serve bananas like a banana split with ice cream and chocolate sauce.
• To make rum ice cream:
• In a 2 1/2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan combine cream and milk. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean into cream mixture, dropping in bean. Add zest and bring mixture just to boil.
• In a large metal bowl whisk together brown sugar and yolks until combined well. Add hot cream mixture to yolk mixture in a slow stream, whisking, and return custard to pan. Cook custard over moderately low heat, whisking constantly, until thickened and coats back of a wooden spoon, about 3 minutes. (Do not let custard boil or it will curdle.)
• Pour custard through a very fine sieve into cleaned metal bowl and cool slightly. Stir in rum and chill, covered, until cold. Freeze custard in an ice-cream maker. Makes about 1 1/2 quarts.
• To make Mexican hot chocolate sauce:
• In a heavy saucepan heat chocolate and half-and-half over low heat, stirring frequently, until chocolate is melted. (The sauce will have a very thin consistency, like that of hot chocolate.) Serve sauce warm. Makes about 1 cup.
