Banana Split with Fried Pasta

Method

1. Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente.
2. In a pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add lime juice, vanilla seeds, and sugar.
3. Slice the bananas and add to the pan. Cook gently until softened.
4. Pour in the cream and let it absorb into the bananas.
5. Mash the banana mixture with a fork to create a chunky cream. Optionally stir in rum.
6. Drain the pasta al dente and immediately toss with sugar while still hot.
7. Heat seed oil in a deep pan for frying.
8. Fry the sugared pasta nests in the hot oil until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
9. Assemble: place a fried pasta nest on a plate, top with banana cream, a scoop of chocolate gelato, and dark chocolate shavings.
10. Serve immediately.
