Try this: scoop the ice cream straight onto the pudding, then stick one corner of the tuile on the top center of the ice cream, getting it to stick out as high as possible. Then drizzle the caramel sauce from a spoon in a random swirly way all around it. Then sprinkle the crushed macadamias all around the plate. Tuiles should generally be used as an opportunity to make the plate look impressive in an architectural way.
Avocado puree and cocktail sauce (homemade mayo,ketchup,cayenne,lemon etc)
Ya i wasn't happy with any of my plating, i pretty much couldn't be bothered to make it look pretty.
i hate round plates for certain things, if i had a rectangle long plate i would of been able to do something better.
And i also hate ice cream on top of desserts, i always put it on the side whether it be on top of a praline or whatever.
I made a curved triangle tuille and was planning on quennelling the ice cream and it basically would of sat inside the tuille, couldn't be bothered.
And its basically a moist banana cake, i just called it a pudding for the sake of calling it something.
Thanks for your tips though i know what u mean.
