    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. They are not only tasty but so healthy. I have heard that they mash up
    steamed banana and feed toddlers. This makes them chubby and healthy.

     

    Our recipe has
    nothing to do with steamed bananas, I have a special payasam for you guys
    today. This one is specially served on onam, in keralan houses. The aroma of
    this payasam is wonderful with all those bananas, ghee, coconut milk and
    cardamom..I love it so much, so thought of sharing it with you all.
