hi… what kind of bananas should we use? The Kerala athaka one or the yellow or green ones? Since we dont get the Kerala athaka ones here , I used the ordinary yellow bananas but I was not able to make rolls with it… finally i mixed together the coconut mixture and the bananas and made rolls some how…but it was tasty!
