Method

  1. Heat the oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. To make the caramel sauce, dissolve the sugar in a heavy saucepan with 60ml water, then boil rapidly for about 5-7 minutes until it starts to turn golden. Remove from the heat - it will continue to colour.
  2. Cut six 10cm circles out of the pastry. Put a pinch of ginger into each of 6 holes of a Yorkshire pudding tin. Spoon some caramel sauce on top, then cover with the banana slices and top with a pastry circle. Press the pastry gently into the tins. Brush the pastry with some milk and bake for about 20 minutes until crisp and golden. Invert onto a serving plate while the caramel is still hot (use a spatula to help you hoick out any banana that gets stuck). Serve with vanilla ice cream or crème fraîche.

    Can I make the banana and ginger tatins in advance - or at least prepare ahead? I plan to make this later today, so a speedy reply would be very much appreciated. Many thanks. Dina West. dinawest@btinternet.com
