Paupiettes De Bananes Aux Jambon

4 Bananas (fairly unripe,

-but not green) 4 sl Ham

6 T Parmesan cheese, grated

1/2 c Double cream

-(whipping cream) Paprika Salt and pepper Peel bananas, sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika (be generous with this). Wrap a slice of ham around each banana. Place bananas in a greased, oven-proof dish and pour cream over them. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve cold (but not refrigerated). NOTES: * Bananas with ham and paprika -- 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. : Difficulty: easy. : Time: 5 minutes preparation, 20 minutes cooking. : Precision: Approximate measurement OK.
