Burrito Bananas Foster Food

FRIED BANANAS FOSTER

Steps:

• Prepare the bananas: Place granulated sugar in a shallow pie plate or baking dish. Toss bananas in sugar; shake off excess.
• Place 4 spring roll wrappers on a work surface with 1 point facing you (so that they look like diamonds). Place 1 banana on each wrapper, 1 inch above bottom point. Carefully begin wrapping banana from the bottom up, keeping the roll as tight as possible. Fold in the sides of the wrapper (like a burrito). Brush 1 inch of top point with some of the beaten egg, and continue to wrap, pressing to secure roll. Repeat with remaining bananas, wrappers, and egg. Place rolls in a single layer on a sheet pan lined with a damp paper towel. Freeze 1 hour.
• Heat oil to 325°F in a large Dutch oven. Fry banana rolls, 2 or 3 at a time, until golden brown, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Prepare the sauce: Cook brown sugar and butter in a skillet over medium-high, whisking constantly, until melted and bubbly, 3 to 4 minutes. Tilt pan away from you, and carefully add the rum, whisking until smooth. Remove pan from heat, and stir in cream and pepper.
• Slice banana rolls in half diagonally. Spoon sauce over top, sprinkle with pecans, and serve with ice cream.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the brown sugar. Stir together and cook for a minute or two. Pour in the cream and stir it around to combine.
• Peel the bananas and slice them on the bias inside the peel. Drop the slices into the pan. Next, add the chopped nuts and stir them into the sauce. Then - and this is where you need to be a little careful - stir in the rum. Let it start to bubble, and then carefully use a long lighter to ignite it. (Be sure to have a lid handy in case you need to extinguish the flame.) Let the fire burn and go out (it'll only take about 30 seconds or so), and then stir in the cinnamon at the end. You may also cook the mixture without flambeing it.
