Nendram pazham Pradhaman (Payasam)
Amma used to give us steamed bananas when we were little. Whenever she makes puttu, she will add cut bananas along with the coconut inside the steamer and cook it. We used to fight for that steamed banana pieces. Specially the ripe plantain(a variety of banana) which gets more tasty when it is steamed.
