Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
cake
1/2 cup butter -- 1 stick
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
3 ripe bananas -- pureed
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda -- baking soda
1/2 cup cashew nuts -- chopped
Merringue
4 egg whites
1 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons light rum
Cream butter & sugar; beat in eggs one at a time. Fold in mashed
bananas & flour sifted with soda & nutmeg. Add cashew nuts. Bake
about 50 minutes in lined, greased cake tin.
zosha's notes: skip the "lining", just butter & flour. Generally a
cake tin would mean an 8" round cake pan. You could make it in a
loaf pan as well. The meringue is obviously part of the cake, but it
doesn't say what you are supposed to do with it. I suspect that it
is one of those things you are supposed to know. So here is my guess
... spread the meringue after the cake has cooked & cooled and bake a
little while longer.
Meringue: beat egg whites, add sugar & rum gradually and continue
beating until mixture holds a peak.
