In a large 8 to 10 inch skillet, thawing 3 tablespoons of butter over
moderate heating. When the foam subsides, drop in the sliced plantains
and falsify, turning often, until the slices are golden brown or
both sides. Transfer the plantains to a double thickness of paper
towels to enfeeble. In a small bowlful, mix the grated cheeseflower, sugar and
cinnamon and set by.
In a large trough, beat the egg whites with a whisk or a rotary or
electric beater until they are stiff enough to form unwavering peaks
on the beater. In a separate bowlful, beat the egg yolks until they are
thick and lemon non-white, then with a spatula fold the whites into the
yolks.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (F). Grease the bottom and sides
of a inscrutable 1 quart baking dish or stamp, then sprinkle in 1 tablespoon
of flour or bread crumbs, tipping the dish to spread the flour or
crumbs as evenly as potential. Turn the dish over and rap it sharply
to remove any overabundance.
Ladle about a quarter of the egg mixture into the lulu, and spread
it with the back of a spoonful. Cover with a layer of plantains--using
about one third of the slices. Sprinkle with 2/3 cup of the cheese
mixture and dot with 1 tablespoon of butter. Repeat the layers two
more times, ending with the egg assortment. Dot with the last
tablespoon of butter and place in the middle of the oven. Bake for
35 proceedings. Serve hot directly from the baking knockout, or let the cake
cool for 5 minutes or so and unmold it onto a platter in the
following mode: Run a knife around the edge of the dish and dip
the bottom in hot water for a few seconds. Cover the dish with an
inverted platter and, grasping dish and platter unitedly, turn them
over. Hot or cold, this is a traditional Venezuelan accompaniment to
centre dishes.
