Method

  1. Put the butter and biscuits into food processor. Blend to bind, then press the buttery crumbs into the tart shell.

  2. For the vanilla cream, pour the double cream into a large bowl and add the icing sugar. Semi whip using a hand-held whisk. Mix in the crème fraiche, vanilla seeds and set aside.

  3. For the banana purée, put the butter into a saucepan over a medium heat and when it starts to brown, add the sliced bananas and vanilla seeds. Sauté for a few minutes then add the sugar and caramelise.

  4. Remove from the heat and, when cool, transfer to a blender and blend to a purée. Chill in the fridge until cold.

  5. To assemble the tart, spoon the purée on top of the biscuit base, smooth out into an even layer, then spoon the dulce de leche on top. Top with the sliced bananas and then the cream. Scatter over the chocolate shards and some cocoa powder. Serve.
