Prasadacha Sheera

This sheera is made as prasad by Maharashtrians for Satyanarayan pooja. The prasad turnms out very nice and when you try doing it on any other day, it doesnt turn out as good, this is what people say. The taste is just unique. The trick and taste of this sheera in my opinion is the banana, so definitely do not skip it. For pooja, we do not add any flavourings or nuts etc, it is served as it is Cook Time: 30 mins
