Glazed Red and Ladyfinger Bananas

• 2 tablespoons unsated butter
• 8 ripe ladyfinger bananas
• 4 ripe red bananas, halved lengthwise
• 1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise
• 1 cup diced (1/3 inch) ripe pineapple
• 1/2 cup sweetened passion fruit juice (see Note)

1. Melt the butter in a nonreactive skillet.
2. Add the bananas in an even layer, red ones cut side down.
3. Tuck the vanilla bean between the bananas and cook over moderately high heat for 4 minutes: turn the lady finger bananas so they brown all over; brown the red bananas on the bottom.
4. Turn the red bananas, add the pineapple and cook until golden, about 2 minutes.
5. Add the passion fruit juice and boil over high heat until reduced to a glaze, about 4 minutes.
6. Serve warm.
