Method
Mix the margarine, salt, pepper and cumin in a little bowl and rub into the the sides of the meat.
Briefly fry the bacon in a non-stick pan to release a little of the fat,
but not long enough to make the bacon crispy.
Remove the bacon, retain the rendering.
Fry the pork steaks for 7 to 10 minutes on each side to seal the meat and apply the flavours.
Meanwhile:
Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 6.
Peel the bananas, and cut into bacon rasher-width sized chunks. Place the bananas in a shallow baking dish and sprinkle with lemon juice.
Wrap the bananas in bacon rashers piercing through with a cocktail stick to keep the bacon and banana in company with each other.
Put the steaks in a shallow baking tray with the bacon/bananas arranged around them.
De-glaze the frying pan with the beer and then pour the beer from the pan over the steaks.
Roast in the pre-heated oven for 20 minutes.
To serve
Eat whilst still hot, with a crisp green salad, and if you are really hungry a few oven-ready chips, or jacket potatoes.
