1For the compressed strawberries: Slice 300g of strawberries in half and place them in a vacuum bag. Add a cinnamon stick, orange zest, and lemon zest to the bag. Vacuum-seal the bag to compress the strawberries and intensify their flavours. Refrigerate the bag overnight to allow the flavours to infuse.

Add 100g of eggs, 100g of soft brown sugar, 100ml of vegetable oil, 170g of self-rising flour, and 3g of ground cinnamon to the mashed bananas. Mix all the ingredients until well combined. Pour the batter into a lined loaf tin and bake for 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool.

3For the burnt banana curd: Place 200g of bananas on an oven tray and grill until they turn black. Let the grilled bananas cool, then transfer them to a blender. Add 100g of eggs, 50g of butter, 10ml of lemon juice, and 100g of sugar to the blender. Blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a saucepan and cook over low heat for about 6 minutes, until thickened. Remove from heat, let it cool, and blend again until smooth. Transfer the curd to a squeezy bottle for easy serving.

4For the banana crisps: Mix the juice of 1 lemon with 10g of sugar. Thinly slice 100g of bananas and brush them with the lemon and sugar mixture. Arrange the banana slices on a lined oven tray. Bake at 80°C (176°F) for 2 hours, or until crisp.

5For the meringue: In a mixing bowl, whisk 100g of aquafaba (chickpea water) with 2g of cream of tartar on high speed for about 10 minutes, until it starts to thicken. In a saucepan, simmer 110g of caster sugar with 50ml of water until it reaches 116°C (241°F). Carefully pour the hot sugar syrup into the whisking aquafaba while continuing to whisk. Stir in 2g of crushed pink peppercorns. Let the meringue cool, then transfer it to a piping bag.
