Bananas With Toffee Sauce

What a decadent dessert this is. If you don't like cooked bananas then you could just have the toffee sauce with ice cream (home-made, of course). Or what about a chocolate brownie with the sauce if you are feeling really devilish!

Ingredients: (serves 4)
4 bananas
125g butter
125g soft brown sugar
125g double cream
lime juice - just a dash
vanilla ice cream - to serve

Method:

• Peel the bananas and cut them into half lengthways
• Melt the butter in a frying pan and fry the bananas for about 30 seconds on each side, until lightly golden. Take the bananas out of the pan and keep them warm.

• Stir the sugar and cream into the pan and heat gently to dissolve the sugar. Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, until thickened, then add the lime juice.

• Pop the bananas on to the plates, drizzle with the toffee sauce and add a generous scoop of ice cream.  

Divine!
