Step-by-step

  1. Bring the milk to the boil with the caster sugar, split vanilla pod, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom and a little nutmeg.
  2. Sprinkle in the rice and stir. Simmer for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid sticking.
  3. Cover and leave to stand for at least 20 minutes.
  4. Pan fry the bananas with the butter and sugar. When lightly caramelised but still firm, pour in the rum and take off the heat.
  5. Fold the condensed milk into the rice.
  6. Serve the pudding in bowls with the banana on top.
  7. Decorate with banana crisps.
  8. For the banana crisps: peel an under-ripe banana and slice it as thinly as possible lengthways.
  9. Put the slices on a non-stick baking mat, dust with icing sugar and dry out in a low oven, 110C, until brown and crisp. These crisps can be kept in an airtight container for a couple of days.
