Ingredients: 2 ripe plantains (yellow, just turning black spots); 4 tbsp unsalted butter, divided; 2 tbsp brown sugar; ¼ tsp sea salt; 3 large egg yolks; ⅓ cup heavy cream; Juice and zest of 2 calamansi (or 1 lime + lemon mix); 2 tbsp whole milk; ½ tsp vanilla extract; 2 slices brioche, 1 inch thick; 12 fresh sage leaves; Pinch of nutmeg; Maldon sea salt for finishing

Caramelized plantain slices layered on toasted brioche with a delicate calamansi-infused custard cream, finished with sage oil burned in brown butter and crispy sage leaves. The tartness of calamansi cuts through the richness, while crispy sage adds herbal bite and textural contrast.
