Wat type of banana to use. ? If it is big variety u have used, can elachi / small bananas b used? N in wat quantity? Should the bananas b totally ripened?
I have used medium sized ones. If using elaichi variety, then you need to use four or five. And yes it should be very ripe..
What are flax meals?
If you grind flax seeds to powder, it is flax meal.
