Bananas with Sticky Rice (Khao Tom Mat or Khao Tom Pad)
Khao Tom Mat (also called Khao Tom Mat is a native Thai dessert. Thai people usually make it to give to monks during a festival called Tuk Bath Tae Wo.My Mom always makes the khao tom Mat at the beginning of Buddhist lent (Khao Phansa Day and Ok Phansa Day. It is also given to relatives during the festival. Khao Tom Pad is one of my favorite desserts. The banana leaves used to make Khao Tom Mat are normally held together using bamboo ties. However, they can be difficult to find locally, so I use rubber bands or string to tie the banana leaves together instead of using a bamboo tie. Follow these instructions, and enjoy a delicious treat.
