Rind and juice of two lemons

1 ½ tsp ground allspice
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 ½ tsp freshly grated nutmeg

Brandy, sherry or rum to moisten
Combine all ingredients in a bowl – except for banana, butter and alcohol.
Peel and dice the bananas and fry quickly in a little butter – approx 5 mins stiring frequently. Remove from heat. Add remaining butter. Melt. Add this to mincemeat mixture and combine well. Moisten with alcohol as desired.
