One of the most traditional Indian mithais gets a fruity twist in this recipe. By mixing chopped canned pineapples with this paneer-based sweet, we balance the dairy flavour and introduce an exciting tanginess that makes it appeal to everybody.

When the urge for a sweet treat strikes cook up this Bengali delicacy and to further enhance it top it with Rabri Cream and chopped mixed fruits or chopped mixed nuts . There is a popular lore that flambéing as a cooking technique was discovered in 1895 when a waiter in Monte Carlo accidentally set fire to a pan of crepes he was preparing for the royal family, and the flavour turned out to be marvelous! This story is disputed by culinary historians, but whatever be the origin, flambéing works magic on certain ingredients, especially fruits.
A flambé is basically a dish that is topped with flaming brandy. The residue left by the burning liquor imparts an exotic aroma and flavour to the dish. The Pineapple Brandy Flambé is one such exquisite creation, which tastes heavenly when served warm with a topping of vanilla ice-cream.
Flambé means flamed in French, and is an adjective used to describe food that is drizzled with some spirit, usually brandy, and set alight for a few moments. This procedure gives the food an exquisite flavour and texture.
The Banana Flambé is a perfect dessert to serve a party of adults. The bananas are sweetened with brown sugar and covered with flaming brandy. While still warm, the flambé is topped with vanilla ice-cream and served immediately. The tang of oranges and the rich sweetness and crunchy texture of caramel strike a fabulous balance in this ice-cream, and bring out the best in each other. This ice-cream goes all out with the oranges, using it in multiple forms like tang, essence and segments. This gives it a very refreshing flavour.
Ensure that you keep the butterscotch sauce ready before preparing the ice-cream, and mix it in while it is still warm. It will form small lumps when you mix it in, but don’t worry, it will taste simply fabulous when you scoop it out. With its awesome blend of flavours and textures, the Orange and Chunky Caramel Ice-Cream is sure to impress young and old alike.
