There are a few things in life that we honestly agree that we've grown up eating... Those who've lived in farms and orchards, remember them as apples from the trees, mangoes from the groves, or fresh fishes from the lake...
But for people like us who've lived in this Godforsaken city most of their life,things are a little different.
Packaged, tinned, canned and frozen food is wat comes to mind first. I agree they aint the best one would want, but i don mind it. Be it the incorrigible Maggi or "lets just eat it as it is" Bournvita. But then when one such thing gets turned into a gourmet delight, life is bliss.
Banoffee=banana+toffee+pie.. Three things worth the glutton.
And the best part being Toffee= Molten Milkmaid.... Mmmmmmmmmmm
Ingredients
1 tin Milkmaid
1 pack Digestive biscuits
100 gms salted butter( just love the salt and sweet combo)
3 large ripe Bananas
Whipped cream and choco nibs for the garnish
Method
» Place the unopened can of milkmaid in a vessel filled with water, enough to cover the tin completely. Simmer covered on a low flame for 2.5 hours (yeah u read it right). Making sure the water level doesnt drop by constantly refilling.
» Meanwhile, line the base of a 20 cm round sprinform tin with aluminium foil. Crush the digestive biscuits with a rolling pin and mix in the melted butter. Combine together well and press this mixture down onto the base of the tin to form the pies base. Refrigerate this for half an hour.
» Once the 2.5 hr long wait is over, remove the tin and run it under cold water and let it rest for atleast 5 mins before u open it. Not listening to my advice may result to a major health hazard like a blast ( excessive pressure u see).
» Now spread the blissful, sinful, molten goodness obtained onto the biscuit base. U might have to use a hot water dipped spatula tp do so.
» Top this up with a nice arrangement of sliced bananas all over.
» And for the ones ready to dare, blob it up with whipped cream and sprinkle a few choco nibs.
Served best with..... Trust me you need nothing with this.. Its pure SIN...
