Pazham Pradhaman
Delicious kerala special Pazham pradhaman made with Kerala banana(plantain)
Pazham Pradhaman is one of the traditional sweet delicacies of Kerala Sadya. Kerala sadya would be incomplete without a payasam. We used to prepare many varieties of kheer( payasam) for festivals like Onam, vishu etc… Pazham pradhaman is a simple and variety kheer made with Kerala bananaa also called nenthrapazham (plantain). We can prepare pazham pradhaman with so many varieties like plantain with dates, with mung dal (cherupayar parippu) etc… But here I used only plantain for making this payasam. It will take around 40 minutes to prepare this pradhaman but the taste is heavenly. Hope you will like this recipe. Please try it out and let me know how it turned out for you.
