    Mauritius Banana Beignets was the dessert chosen to represent this Island nation. Bananas are abundant, we also enjoyed them several times simply cut in half and grilled with a bit of vanilla sugar.

    This is the recipe I made with Chef Sandy while staying with her and her family in Mauritius.  It is quick and easy, and we thoroughly enjoyed them.  I am sure you will too. Thanks to Chef Sandy for sharing her recipe.
