Banana Cream

5 bananas 1/4 ounce vegetable gelatine 1/2 pint milk 1 tablespoon sugar 2 oranges 1/2 pint cream Peel the bananas, and pass them through a sieve, and add the sugar and whipped cream; soak the gelatine in two tablespoons of cold water, when dissolved, add it to the milk, and let it just come to the boil, then add it to the cream and banana, and mix lightly. Turn into a mold, and let it stand in a cold place. When set, turn out, and put the oranges--cut into thin slices--round, and serve.
