Ingredients

• 2 14-oz cans condensed milk

• 11/2 cups all-purpose flour

• 1/2 cup plus 3 tbsp confectioners’ (icing) sugar (or more to taste)

• 1/2 lb unsalted butter, chilled, cut into 1/4-inch/2/3-cm pieces

• 1/4 tsp salt

• 3 egg yolks, lightly beaten

• 8 to 10 bananas

• 2 cups heavy cream (double cream)

• Seeds of 1 vanilla bean

• 3 tbsp grated bittersweet chocolate

Directions

To prepare the filling:

Place the cans of condensed milk in a pot and cover them with water.

Bring the water to a boil and let the cans boil continuously for 4 hours.

Check the water level occasionally to ensure that the cans remain covered with water the entire time.

Remove the cans from the pot and let them cool overnight.

THIS TIME IS INCLUDED IN PREP TIME

To prepare the dough:

Sift the flour into a mixing bowl, then add the 1/2 cup sugar, butter and salt.

Knead the mixture with your hands until it resembles fine bread crumbs.

Then add the egg yolks and continue to knead the mixture until the egg is incorporated and the dough is smooth.

Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for 1 hour.

Cut the dough into 2 or 3 large pieces.

Grate the dough with a large-tooth box grater onto the base of an 11-in tart pan and press it evenly around the base, then the sides. The dough should be a little less than 1/4 in thick on the base and 1/2

in thick on the sides. Prick the bottom with a fork, then freeze the dough for 15 minutes.

To construct the pie:

Bake the pie shell at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes or until brown all over.

Allow the pie shell to cool.

Next, peel and thinly slice the bananas on the bias.

Arrange half of the bananas on the base of the pie in concentric circles, starting from the outside and working your way to the center. Gently dollop the caramelized condensed milk on top of the pie, and spread it to evenly cover the bananas.

Follow with another layer of bananas.

Cover the tart with plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

While the pie is chilling, whisk together the cream, vanilla seeds and the remaining 3 tbsp of confectioners’ sugar to taste, until soft peaks form.

Remove the pie from the refrigerator and then spread the whipped cream over it, completely covering the top layer of bananas.

Sprinkle the grated chocolate over the top and chill the pie in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

As strenuous as this one sounds I want to try it. what is the significance of "prick the bottom {of dough} with a fork"?
