Steps

  1. Whip the cream in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form.
  2. Pass the bananas through a fine sieve in another bowl. Add the stiffly-whipped cream and the liqueur, and mix lightly together.
  3. Dissolve the gelatine in the 15 ml warm water, stir in the sugar, and when sufficiently cool mix lightly with the cream mixture, adding food coloring drop by drop until a pale pink colour is obtained.
  4. Pour into the prepared mould, and chill until set.
