Bananas are wrapped inside a layer of sticky rice, wrapped in a layer of banana leaves and then baked in a charcoal oven. Because it is grilled to the edge, the outer shell is crispy but still retains the softness of the sticky rice. Inside is a soft ripe banana that is both sweet and fleshy combined with greasy coconut milk and fragrant roasted peanuts sprinkled on top. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water.
