Traditionally in Palani, a variety of banana called Virupakshi is used, which grows in that area. The next best substitute is Chiru Malai Vazaippazam, available in Dindigul. Now we have to use, whatever variety is available !
Ripe sweet bananas - 20
Kismiss (raisins) - 100gms
Jaggery ( if in India, nattu sakkarai ) - 200gms
Ghee - 50gms
Deseeded dates(Chopped) - 100gm
Honey - 100gm
Sugarcandy(diamond kalkandu) - 100gm
In a big vessel, take the peeled bananas, crush with jaggery, then add all ingredients & mix with a ladle ( do not use the hands to mix). If you can manage to get ripe jackfruit, ½ cup finely chopped, can be added to this.
