     HAM-BANANAS - Bananas with ham and paprika

INGREDIENTS (Serves 4)
     4         bananas (fairly unripe, but not green)
     4         slices of ham
     6 Tbsp    grated Parmesan cheese
     1/2 cup   double cream (whipping cream)
               paprika
               salt and pepper

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Peel bananas, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and
               paprika (be generous with this).

          (2)  Wrap a slice of ham around each banana.

          (3)  Place bananas in a greased, oven-proof dish and
               pour cream over them.

          (4)  Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top.

          (5)  Bake at 400 deg. F for 20 minutes or until golden
               brown.

          (6)  Serve cold (but not refrigerated).

NOTES
     This comes from the Vogue French Cookery Book. It seems to
     go down rather well as an appetizer, although it would make
     a nice supper snack, I suppose.

RATING
     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 5 minutes preparation, 20 minutes
     cooking.  Precision: Approximate measurement OK.
