Tomato rice with banana gratin

Spread mustard on one side of the ham slices, dust with curry powder, and wrap peeled bananas in it. Layer the bananas in a buttered gratin dish, pour over cream or milk and white wine, and sprinkle with the cheese. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake in a preheated oven for about 20-30 minutes until nicely browned. In a pan, sauté the garlic and onion in fat until translucent, stir in the tomatoes, and cook for about 5 minutes. Add the rice and water, bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over low heat until tender and all the liquid has been absorbed. Stir in parsley, salt, and pepper to taste. Serve the rice and banana gratin together.
