Grilled Bananas

Ingredients:

-- 4 ripe bananas
-- 1/4 c. honey
-- cinnamon
-- ginger (opt.)

Either a) prepare a med. hot charcoal fire or b) heat a ridged cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot but not smoking.

Cut bananas lengthwise in half, and each half until 3 pieces (6 pieces per banana).

Heat honey until very fluid. Toss the bananas with the honey in a shallow bowl until they are all coated. This can be done 1-2 hours in advance.

Arrange the banana pieces cross-wise on the grill (or skillet). Grill until marked on the bottom. Turn and grill just until the second side is marked, 30 secs - 1 min per side. Arrange on a platter and dust lightly with spices.

Serves 4
