Spicy is our video channel on YouTube. This Drunk Bananas Flambe recipe from Dave DeWitt’s 1001 Best Hot and Spicy Recipes is a childhood favorite of his to which he added the kick of chile pepper.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar optional
- 1 tsp New Mexican red chile, such as Chimayo finely ground
- 5 each firm bananas peeled and sliced lengthwise
- 3/4 cup dark rum
Servings: servings
Instructions
- In a large skillet, Combine the butter, sugar, and chile in a large skillet and stir over low heat. Add the bananas and cook gently until they are just soft, turning once.
- Add the dark rum and allow it to heat up for a minute or two. Throw a lighted match into the skillet and set the bananas aflame. When the flame dies out, transfer the bananas to serving plates, remove the match, spoon some of the sauce over them, and sprinkle with the allspice. Variation: Sprinkle the bananas with toasted coconut, too.
